Temperature sender/sensor... 7.3L

Hi All,

I think RV'ers tend to have a diverse knowledge of things.
Now that you're buttered. lol

My temperature sender/sensor is doing odd things.
It was just replaced (and I don't wish to contact them again.).

It is either all the way hot, or all the way cold. Occasionally I've seen it in the middle.

This morning I watched it carefully, as it was in the rare middle position. Within a few minutes I saw it rise to all the way hot. Pegged.

Then during the day it will switch to all the way cold.

Anyone ever heard of this happening?
  • Thanks BurbMan.
    You are wonderful.
    And very insightful.
    And full of ... intelligence...
  • sounds more like the wiring is chaffed and causing issues with the sensor
  • Sounds like you have air in the coolant system, some coolant systems have very specific bleed procedures after you open them up to replace components.

    Ahhh....feels good to be buttered!
