I have installed a Timex Tacho and Temp Gauge which did not come with Wireing Diagram :evil: Tacho Works no troubles but I just get the temp gauge to work properly When the Radiator is at 60 the Gauge is at 100.
Lights are always on when Ign is on and when the Ign is Turned on Both bounch all the way to the top then settle back (well temp back to 100)
Tacho has yellows red green and black (red to the fuse box Ign yellows to lights and green to coil)
Temp has yellow red Blue and Black (red to fuse box ign Yellow to lights and blue to Temp Sender)
any ideas

Did the gauge come with its own temp sender or are you using the standard mini one? It is possible that the Temp gauge operates on a different Ohm range than the standard mini sender.

Jim, if you can't get the right sensor,
try putting a resistor in parallel with the sensor to drop it back down the scale. Trial & error or use a variable resistor (trimpot). :idea:

Probably not a bad guess to go with makka - give it a try on max resistance, then turn it down to see if you can get the gauge in the right range.
Let us know how you go :wink:
