Help: Faulty Oil Temp Gauge or Sensor?
My oil temp gauge has decided to go to the max and stay there (ignition on or off).
Is this a faulty gauge or sensor?
Best way to test?
If I remove all wires to the gauge it will return to zero. If I reconnect the wires it stays at zero until I switch the ignition on, then it rises to max and stays there.
Cheers

Ground the wire to the engine and the gauge should then drop back to '0'
