ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    help...temp. gauge is not working

    ok so when i start my car i let it run for a while to see if the needle is going to move to let me know the engine is getting hot. the needle doesnt move but my fans come on. is my coolant sensor going bad? im not getting a cel for it. but i took the plug off and i tuned the car on and still didnt get a cel for it and the plug is not on the coolant sensor. what could be the problem?

    The gauge sender is the single pin sensor on the head under the dizzy.
    It won't throw a CEL if it's faulty because it doesn't feed info to the ecu.

    Replace it first, then if the gauge still isn't working check the wiring and cluster

    A "Finished" project car is never finished until its been sold.

    If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

      Not to thread jack, but I am having a similer problem, but it is only intermitent. That is, it only happens once in a while. The guage will read totally cold, then randomly it will jump up to half-temp, stay for a moment, then back to full cold, while the car is running and at operating temp. I'll take a look at the sensor today after work.
