Analog water temp sensor stopped working - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

ZR WON · 10-13-2009

All:

While driving around this afternoon, I was reveling in how well the car was running, when I came up to a stop light. I happened to be looking at the gauges when it happened. The analog water temp sensor went to '100.' I was of course able to monitor the water temp on the HVAC head unit in Celsius, but I would like to get this fixed.

I can see with a mirror that both connectors on the drivers injector housing are connected. In speaking with Corey, he recommending 'tapping' the connections with a dowel, welding rod, etc. to see if it would start working again. Unfortunately for me, that didn't seem to remedy the problem. Has anyone had this happen? I can't imagine it's the gauge itself, but rather one of the sensors causing the issue. Any and all thoughts appreciated!
