    Anybody taken the time to check the ohms of a temperature sensor at ambient temperature? Having to replace the smoked gauges on my '62 CJ5. New gauge reads mid scale with cold engine. Omix sent new gauge set, but don't want to pull instrument cluster and replace gauges if sensor is bad. It...

    Sorry if this has been posted before but I didn't know how to word this for the search. I have a 98 GC with the 4.0. and after the Rad and water pump were replaced, the temp gauge would fluctuate slightly. Yesterday it started going from normal 210 temp to the bottom of the gauge, and then I...

    Hey everyone! So I am new to the Jeep Forum website but i am here asking for help. Since around October I have been having issues with my jeep overheating, but it only does so on the highway. I've gotten my thermostats replaced, my water pump, and my radiator. My mechanic has also flushed...

    (This post is an update to my previous post.) I recently noticed that the AC fan noise has become louder. When I drive on the highway, the AC pushes out cold air. However, when the car is at normal city speed, the air is warm (passenger's side warmer), and the dashboard eventually gives the...

    I'm stuck. The temperature gauge is reading high at idle, 220-230, but it isn't boiling--the upper radiator hose isn't even hot. Here's the whole story: the head gasket was leaking coolant into two cylinders, so I replaced it. In the process, I broke the top of the temperature gauge sensor...

    It's Florida and summertime, the stock gauge says I am pushing awfully close to "H". I do not trust the stock gauge so I added a mechanical water temp gauge. I removed the Temp switch sender (see picture) and added the after market sensor using the brass fitting included in the kit. It...

    This has happened to me twice now, the first time I was hoping it was an anomaly but now I'm hoping it isn't getting worse. Both times I had been doing hard driving for several hours in remote parts of the desert, was in 4x4, and in a low gear going very slow. The ping alarm goes off and light...

    I have a 91 YJ that the temperature gauge reads always cold. I replaced the sensor near the back of the block on drivers side. I tested the wire with a ground and gauge reads hot as it should. But when I put the wire cap back on and get the jeep hot, I get no reading. Is it grounded somewhere...

    So I've been having starting and stalling problems. With the jeep idling way to high as well as rough. Replaced IAC, And my temp guage came to life. Lasted about 3 days, got a new part, still won't work. So I'm wondering if it's the IAC, is bad or of its due to the bad guage. Because I was...

    Working on getting our 1989 Wrangler into reliable condition for my daughter and wife. (The Wrangle is my wife's love...) I have had a couple of occasions where the temperature gauge runs up to the red but if you stop and check under the hood it does not "smell" like it is overheating... We...

    Hi guys, just joined this forum haven't really gotten used to it yet so bare with me. I have a 1994 Jeep wrangler Sahara with the 4.0l 5 speed. My temp gauge seems to be malfunctioning. Once the jeep gets warm the gauge comes up to 100 degrees and stays there. Won't move. I tried putting a new...

    Temperature gauge is jumping all over the dash after having a new clutch installed, and some welding on the exhaust under the tranny. Jumping is mostly random, the accelerator pedal seems to affect it. I unhooked the sensor on the thermostat housing and it didn't change a thing. What the heck?!

    Had my 2014 Unlimited Rubicon X with manual transmission and engine block heater misbehave today. Had been driving for about 20 minutes when the temperature gauge dropped from "normal" to "C" and the heater was blowing cool instead of hot. Pulled to the side of the road and sat there for 45...

    Well, yesterday it finally hit the lower 30's and as I turned on my Jeep, the temperature gauge stays stuck below the 100 degree mark. After driving a bit, the gauge stayed the same so I pulled over,shut the car off, and turned it back on. The temperature gauge was still stuck so I tapped the...

    I was driving to work this morning in 45 degree weather, and the termperature light buzzed on at me out of nowhere. I of course immediately pulled over and shut her off, opened the hood and heard a bubbling sound like there may be some boiling going on, but didn't smell any antifreeze or see any...

    Hi guys, I popped my Jeep cherry about 2 weeks ago and I couldn't be more proud. It's a '93 YJ with the 4.0 and about 139,000. The temperature gauge doesn't work and I, without realizing, already replaced the temperature sensor at the front of the motor before I found out that it goes to the ecu...

  19. XJ Cherokee Technical Forum
    Hello all! I'm in a tricky situation with my JEEP and I don't know what to do. Basically, I had removed my engine fan about a year ago. The fan mounting was busted and the fan blades were scraping against the belt. So I took it out. Drove all through summer without it. No overheating...

    I own a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the 5.2 Liter V8 engine. The body control module has stopped working correctly which has resulted in the temperature gauge showing an overheated condition whenever the car is on. (Whether the engine is running or not) I am fairly sure that it is the BCM...
