I did a quick search and didn't get all the answers I need. Here's the skinny.
I purchased a 94 a while back. It has gauges. Temp didn't work. I found that the wire was disconnected from the sender and thought that it was to hide an engine temp problem.
I hooked it up and it worked fine and did not get too hot so I thought I was done.
Since then it quit working again. This time I checked the connection, replaced the sensor twice (I broke the first one in the socket), still nothing.
When the key is off it reads above 0. When I turn the key to start, it reads at max until the key is returned to the run position where the gauge goes dead.
I took the cluster out and noticed a little corrosion? on the solder behind the temp gauge.
I dont know if I can replace the circuit board on my cluster with one from another Jeep, replace the gauge inside or just replace the whole cluster. I don't care about true mileage because this Jeep is going to die with me.
Should I try to run a new wire from the sender to the plug at the cluster?
HELP!
Thanks!
