My temperature control gauge is not working, could it be fuse related?

Hi Gene,
Welcome!

You can check the fuse for the gauges.
It's on the lower right of the fuse panel.

You might also check the electrical connector at the temperature sender in the left side head.

Regards,
Alan



The wire lead has a woven protective 'sheath' on it.

All my other gauges work so that fuse is ok. I'll check electrical connector at the temperature sender as you suggested.
Thanks again.
