A Final Answer On The 2.3 Temp Gauge

[Stevoo]

Yes i can confirm the temp gauge are not accurate lol.

Took my car to me uncles and plugged it into his ecu reading machine, Temp Gauge was on the M of normal and no fans spinning the actual temp from ECU was 87c. The fans is set to kick in @ 96c. and they cut off at 86.

 

As many ppl post about temp guages going up to high and fans not cooling engine, Now most can now put their mind at rest.

 

Both fans will spin at high speed if temp is very high as i had a loose connection on my main fan, which we fixed both fans were spinning very fast as temp was over 100c... :35:), When Aircon is on Both fans will spin.

 

So now my mind is at rest as the fans are now working to correct temp, even though the Gauge reads high temps.

 

 

 

 

I love the ECU reading machine, it told me im running lean from the 02 sensor. Looks like that will fail my MOT in december lol.
