Re: Water Temp operation by itself. How to configure
Well, the fuel guage and the temp guage both use the same 12v source. They
are grounded through the respective sensors. So, if you took the 12v away to
feed the fuel guage, you need to make a jumper of some sort to get that 12v
back to the temp guage.
