hi all, got myself a temperature gauge today from halfords for my volvo 340, got all the lights working on it but i cant get it to tell the temperature. on the gauge it has 3 pins, 1 with a S, 1 with a + and the other with nothing. if i run wires from the +on the batery to the plus on the gauge and the S to the temp sender the gauge goes all the way round to hot??? can any1 help?
thanks

Re: temperature gauge
Reading too high is normally the gauge not being earthed (which, I'm guessing is the wire you havn't fitted
) Do you have the instructions that came with the gauge?
