Speedhut 2-5/8″ 100-300F Diff Temp Gauge w/ Warning (R25-DT1-REV)

Description

The Speedhut 2-5/8″ 100-300F Diff Temp Gauge w/ Warning (R25-DT1-REV) is a vital instrument for monitoring the health and performance of your vehicle’s differential. By providing accurate temperature readings, this gauge allows you to identify potential issues before they lead to costly damage, ultimately extending the lifespan of your differential components and ensuring smooth operation. The integrated warning light offers an immediate visual alert if your differential fluid exceeds a safe operating temperature, giving you crucial time to address the situation.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Precise Temperature Monitoring: Accurately measures differential fluid temperature within a range of 100 to 300 degrees Fahrenheit, providing essential data for assessing operational conditions.
• Early Problem Detection: Enables the early identification of potential issues like low fluid levels, incorrect oil type, or excessive load, which can cause elevated temperatures.
• Overheat Protection: Features a built-in warning light that illuminates when the differential temperature reaches a critical level, alerting the driver to take necessary action.
• High-Quality Sensor: Includes a performance 2-wire temperature sender, ensuring reliable and responsive temperature readings.
• Complete Installation Kit: Ships with all necessary wiring harnesses (power/lighting and temperature sensor cable) and the Speedhut temperature sensor for a straightforward installation process.
• Standard Sizing: The 2-5/8 inch gauge size fits common aftermarket gauge pods and mounting solutions.

HOW TO USE:

1. Install the Temperature Sensor: Locate the appropriate port on your vehicle’s differential (typically a drain plug or designated sensor port). Install the Speedhut temperature sensor securely.
2. Route the Wiring: Carefully route the 2-wire cable from the temperature sensor to the desired location for the gauge. Ensure the wiring is protected from heat and moving parts.
3. Connect the Sensor Wiring: Connect the two wires from the temperature sensor cable to the corresponding terminals on the back of the Speedhut temperature gauge.
4. Connect the Power and Lighting Harness: Connect the 3 ft power and lighting harness to the designated terminals on the back of the gauge.
5. Provide Power and Ground: Connect the power wire (typically red) from the harness to a switched 12V power source in your vehicle. Connect the ground wire (typically black) to a reliable ground point on the vehicle’s chassis.
6. Mount the Gauge: Install the 2-5/8 inch gauge into a suitable mounting location or gauge pod using the appropriate hardware. Ensure it is securely fastened and easily visible.
7. Test the Gauge: Start your vehicle and allow it to run for a short period. Observe the gauge to ensure it is displaying a temperature reading. The warning light function can typically be tested by temporarily exposing the sensor to a heat source (use caution).
8. Set the Warning Threshold (if applicable): Some Speedhut gauges allow you to program the temperature at which the warning light activates. Refer to the specific instructions included with your gauge for this process.
