The temp gauge on my freelander aint working ...i've only had it a few day .... anyway today i had a fiddle with the sencer ....the thing with pink/green - pink/black wires coming out of it ...so i disconned the connection and the rad cooling fan starting to spin ...pluged it back again and the fan stopped ... but the gauge still did not move... any ideas


btw its a 1989 1.8 petrol
 
do a search on here, dogfox. Someone else has a similar problem and NI posted to two colors for the sensors. I posted the electrical circuitry.
 
ok found the correct sensor ( blue one ) .... also i wired it direct to earth and the temp gauge moved of the scale .... ordered a new sensor from land rover of taunton and will be monday
 
And as i was just about to leave the parts department the bloke behind the counter said ...hope to see you again .... i thought ...i hope not
 
nice one! TBH, the parts guy was probably impressed with your knowledge of the sensor. Not many FL owners would change the electronic stuff, they wouldn't normally sell the components to joe public, more like through the service team.

He may have regarded you as a specialist who fixes FL's for a living ;)
