Oil temp gauge install question?
 
Someone want to interpret this for me, makes no sence.

Bottom half says temp gauge. Left says white to white and black to black but no mention of the green wire on the right saying temp sensor. But the sending unit has 2 wires. Above for oil pressure tells you how to run the wires so day can be white and night can be amber but then you're using those wire on the bottom for something else? I ******* hate electric bull ****!

God I hate when you talk like that.

You're saying ground the black wire on the harness and ground the black wire on the sensor? White to white makes no sense because the white is a 12v to change the color. No where does it say attach green harness to white sensor.

Those morons, how much trouble would it have been to open the pkg and put in new directions???
I guarantee you if you wired it wrong because of faulty directions and burnt it up they wouldn't refund.....Lazy Lazy Lazy

Looks nice though!

Glad to see you got things worked out but I have to ask: Why another oil temp gauge? What is wrong with the dash gauge?

We'll the ground and 12v woulda been ok. Sensor wouldn't of worked though. I got it from Oakes so maybe they had it in stock for a really long time.

And thanks

Diff cooler :happydance:

I'm custom making one. I'll have about $460 in it including oil, thread sealer etc. little cheaper than the same thing from GTM that wants $1300 just for the kit, no oil or install items.
