my car's old temp sending unit was replaced because it's already worn out . what i noticed is the temp gauge reading becomes higher after replacing the sensing unit with a new one. almost 3/4 (a little above the halfway mark) ang normal reading.

before when i was using the old temp sending unit ang normal reading ng temp gauge is just 1/4 (a little below the halfway mark).

di naman masyadong mainit engine ko pag binuksan ko hood. di naman nababawasan coolant/tubig sa radiator. my water pump was just replaced 3 mos ago. wala ring leak sa mga hose.

temp gauge na ba problem ko? or the replacement part that i got sends inaccurate reading?
