[QUOTE="flyerdan, post: 109658, member: 2510"] According to three books in the manual thread, there should be two wires going to the sensor, although the black one might be an aux. ground attached at the base or elsewhere. The sender is a thermal resistor (Bobcat pn 6654202), so the best way to test the gauge would be to connect it to a decade box and see if you get the needle to swing. If that works, try running a ground wire from the body of the sensor to ground and see if the gauge works. It could be that someone used teflon tape or other sealer that insulates the sender from the block. But there should have been a two wire connector with a yellow/red and a black wire for it. [/QUOTE]
