Hi all.
Have been trying to find answers to my problem on more or less every forum out there including this one regarding my faulty water temp gauge.
The car is a 2002 1HZ swapped for a LC80 1HD-T and the temp gauge is dead.
Previous owner said there might be something wrong with the resistance from the sensor to the gauge but I would personally find that strange since the car originally also had this engine in some specs.
I have not had it checked with a OBD scanner as I got the car two days ago and the weather has been dreadful since.
Does anyone have any idea of where to start, myself thinking faulty sensor.
I have read numerous threads here and on other forums arguing on where the sensor is situated and I have come to the conclusion it's right under the oil filter. Is this correct?
Looking forward to hear your ideas as to where to start.
Thanks!
