[QUOTE="Festus, post: 100522, member: 15289"] The temp sensor connector looked clean so I gave it a blast of electronic cleaner. Also noticed one wire had been repaired with heat shrink tubing on it. It seemed a bit flimsy and one wire easily pulled out so I opened it up and repaired it properly with solder and closed it back up. About 10 seconds after the SS is started the temp gauge pegs out hot. I disconnected the temp sensor and it still pegs out about 10 seconds after starting. I jump the connector thinking it would do something different but I got the same results. Next thing to do is pull the gauge and see if jumpering it makes a difference there could be another broken wire in the harness somewhere. I'm still contemplating whether to replace the gauge or the sensor first. Just don't like throng parts at it but I may end up doing that. I did operate it for awhile with the gauge pegged and it did not shut down, it didn't get hot. I have some pic but not sure how to post them here. I am busy so it might be a few days before I chime in again. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
