glowshift water temp gauge

By 1-low-92-EG-Sedan
- Sat Nov 12, 2011 1:21 am #281154 ok so i got a glow shift water temp gauge and i am having some difficulties...at the moment i dont have any way to hook it up correctly with the new sensor they gave me..but i was wondering if i could maybe splice the wire into the existing sensor for the time being so the gauge actually works instead of sitting at 100 ...and if i can splice the wires...wut ones do i splice and where...thanks in advance

Not only was it a sweeper(I bought numerical) it didn't work (no lights, nuthin'), called them up, they tell me I gotta buy their whole o2 system. I had another buddy that I help throw a voltmeter in and it was internally shorted. Since you already got it, though try using the single post connector under the distributor. Is there something wrong with your OEM gauge??
