i found a little temp guage amongst some crap i was looking through. and i snapped the cable off trying to reef it out of the box. can these guages be rewired. i dont know the word for it, but its a bronzey lookin cable, with a hole in the middle of it. and a funny smell coming out of it.
thanx. |

not from my knowledge they work by the motor heating the fluid and it moving the needle at the gauge end.
get rid of it and get a good electrical unit,
cheers
