November 16th, 2003 07:58 PM #2ano car mo sir? yung temp gage lang ba ang hindi gumagana? does the speedometer and fuel gauges work when the engine is running? also. before starting (key to IGN) does all the check lights on your dash light up?

November 16th, 2003 10:04 PM #4The problem might be coming from a faulty coolant temperature sensor. If you can do it by your self you can test if the gauge is working by locating the coolant temperature sensor. One wire lang yon alam ko. Malapit sa may cyl. head cguro yan. If you can locate it and are pretty sure that it is it, tanggalin mo sa connector tapos yung wire na papunta sa luob ng tsikot i-ground mo. Takbo ka sa loob ng oto para makita kung umangat yung gauge. Pag-umangat yon ibig sabihin faulty na ang sensor at kailangan na palitan. Estimate ko mga P 600.00 siguro ang price ng bagong sensor.
***dont try this unless you're pretty confident and have a background on AUTOMOTIVES. Better yet, have it done by your favorite mechanic.

November 18th, 2003 02:09 AM #6Where are you from? Kasi kung dto ka sa may Las Pinas marami ako alam. Definitely not needed to have it checked sa casa. Try mo sa Servitek or gasoline station. Basic naman yung diagnosis and repair na gagawin dyan eh.

November 19th, 2003 05:52 AM #8zechs,
try to see baka nadisconnect lang din ang wire nito....the sensor is usually near the point where in the engine coolant (radiator) hose goes into (water pump). The purpose kasi is to measure the temp of the water getting into the engine. Minsan loose connection lang....although possible na busted na yung sensor mo kasi matanda na yung car.
my 2 cents.
Be careful with channels like "China Observer" on YouTube. There is a clear bias in their posts and...
