Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
- Remove instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Disassemble instrument cluster to access engine coolant temperature gauge terminals on back of speedometer assembly.
- Ensure engine coolant temperature gauge needle is against COLD stop. Using DVOM, measure resistance between gauge terminals. See Fig 1. Ensure resistance is as specified. See ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE RESISTANCE table. If resistance is not as specified, replace engine coolant temperature gauge.
