Transmission temperature
I have a 2000 5.9 Cummins. 3-55 gears. Took it on a test run with the built transmission and 12,000 load. Is pointing an inferred temperature sensor at the pan or transmission an accurate way to deter...

I put my trans temp sensor in my output line just before the check ball and cooler. Took a little bit of plumbing with adapters from Ace Hardware but works well.
Mine runs around 130* highway empty, 180*-190* up some of the little hills here (Berthoud Pass, Loveland Pass, Vail Pass, etc)
Lately the gauge has started acting up - temps will swing wildly and rapidly - either the gauge, the sensor or wiring ... any thoughts on which to swap first or how to test to find the defective part?
Apology in advance for a little thread hijack.
With that in mind I would look for the wire going to ground or touching ground.
