HOW TO USE:

1. Mount the Gauge: Locate a suitable 2-1/16 inch (52mm) opening in your dashboard or a gauge pod. Securely mount the Speedhut Water Temp Gauge in this opening.
2. Install the Temperature Sender: Identify the appropriate location on your engine’s coolant system (typically a threaded port on the engine block or thermostat housing) for the temperature sender. Remove any existing sensor or plug. Install the provided 2-wire performance temperature sender, ensuring a tight and sealed connection.
3. Wire the Gauge: Connect the wires from the gauge to the corresponding wires in your vehicle’s electrical system. Typically, this involves a power wire (often connected to an ignition-switched source), a ground wire, and the two wires from the temperature sender. Refer to the specific wiring diagram provided with the gauge for accurate connections.
4. Connect the Sender Wires: Run the two wires from the newly installed temperature sender to the back of the gauge and connect them to the designated terminals. The wiring diagram will indicate the correct connections.
5. Test the Gauge: Once all connections are made, turn on your vehicle’s ignition. The gauge should illuminate, and the needle should move to indicate the current coolant temperature as the engine warms up. Verify that the readings are within the expected range.
