Thanks jax. Ill have to try this test. I got a new sensor and did some of my own testing with the ice water bath, ambient and warmed up temps. I think my numbers were relative to the drop down selection that nando is referring to. When I tested the one currently in the car before the new one was installed the ambient temp ohms were off the chart, which im thinking may have been a bad sensor. When I put the new one in and re-calibrated it seemed to be working well BUT. when the car was warm the same thing occurred. The MS gauge would read 100 Degrees F at fully warmed up temp (roughly 176oF) and during driving it would go back and forth from 100 to 176 on the MS table gauge(during these trips the cluster gauge read perfect warmed up temp). Which leads me to think there is some sort of issue with the wiring. Whether that be a ground or the signal wire. So I am going to perform the test you suggested and see how it goes. Will that test identify if its the signal wire or a grounding issue? Or will that just tell me in general if its a wiring issue...
Thanks again...i'm almost there with this lol
