Engine Temperature dial broken?
Good evening all

In need of a little advice/direction.

The engine Temperature dial is stuck in this position. The engine hasn't overheated previously to put it in this position and not sure whether it is just an electrical gremlin.

I've disconnected the battery to see if it would reset and checked the connections there. No joy.

All other dials work perfectly and also the filled up the diesel to check whether that was working. So it is just the temp gauge.

I'm pretty sure that the gauge can't be swapped out and it is a console out job and to a specialist to fix? If so any recommendations? Seen a few advertised ic£150 to fix but would welcome any steer from those who have had to have similar work done.

Thanks all

Andy

Might be a failed CHT Sensor, they aren’t expensive but worth changing and I think it might be the likely cause of the issue.
There is no guarantee it is, but that’s my thoughts. TheThunder Rolls🇬🇧🇺🇸
