[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 10066, member: 307"] There is only one sender, the boss and the guage are one in the same. It will beep at you at 230 f and shutdown at @ 235f. Try covering you entire rad with cardboard and idle the machine for 5 to 8 minutes, if the guage is working you should start to see the bars on the temp guage lighting up. Remove the cardboard before getting to hot. Mine may have been the exception instead of the rule, it sucks that there is no way to see if the engine is warming up in a cold climate, other then I had a heater which gave me a good idea. Hope this helps This is how the bars on my 1993 753 temp guage used to behave. Normal was only the bottom light on that comes on even when its cold. if I worked it hard on a 80 degree summer day, I would get the second bar from the bottom on. I had the bobcat test box on loan rom the dealer and this is what it said as the lights progessively came on [TABLE] [TR] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]Water temp Guage[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]1 Bar[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]cold to190degrees[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]2 Bar[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]190 to 198[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]3 Bar[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]198 to 204[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]4 Bar[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]204 to 210[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]5 Bar[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]210 to 217[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]6 Bar[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]217 to 224[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]7 Bar[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]224 to 231[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]8 Bar[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]230 on up warning sounds[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD] [/TD] [TD][FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] [LEFT]235 engine shutdown[/LEFT][/SIZE][/FONT][/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [TD] [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] Regards Ken [/QUOTE]
