A few days ago my 1997 J30 dashboard temperature gauge stays at zero even after the car has run for a while. The car runs perfectly fine though.
I've always felt comfortable having a temp gauge but is it really necessary, considering other dashboard lights which might warn of overheating?
I'm not sure if the problem is the gauge or the sending sensor. If it's the sensor, where is it on the 97?
I'm not sure if this is relevant but the problem might have started after by alarm went off. I detached the battery cable and put it back on
but the alarm went on again. I did this several times until I opened the trunk closed it and the alarm went off. I'm just wondering if a
battery surge might have caused the temp gauge problem.
Thanks for any help,
Len
