Hi Guys,
Having an issue after 3 weeks of sitting started up my mercruiser 5.0 tks bayliner capri cuddy.. temp gauge
not moving everything else is and engine seems to get up to temp fine.
I have since replaced the temp sensor and installed a new quiksilver gauge to match the mercruiser sender,
still not working. I have tried different power/ground if i short the sensor wire to the block the gauge goes down?
Does the same with the old gauge and all other gauges are working.
I am getting very frustrated haha, could it be a break in the sender wire? but if that was the case why does it go down when i ground it ..
Manifolds and thermostat less than 12 months old all original mercruiser.
