danger Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Right. I'm putting an autogauge water temp gauge in my centre console of my RX7 and I was wondering if I could run both it and the original dash gauge off a single sensor? Or will it get half signals or anything silly like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Will need the sender that came with the aftermarket gauge. Would be surprised if they worked on the same voltages. What is wrong with your factory gauge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danger Posted December 25, 2009 Author Share Posted December 25, 2009 Factory gauge is pretty tiny and not very accurate plus I wanted an oil pressure gauge and there is room above the headunit for 2 gauges. Dont think it came with a sender... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubblegoose Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 wont work very well if at all use new sender and delete the factory one in favor of diddlemeter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m0ss4yy Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Mine didnt work. Factory sender is just the one sensor wire from the stock sensor, whereas autogauge sensor is made differently and needs to be grounded to work, cause the factory 1 is grounded on the head. Basically no it wont work/didnt for me but u might be lucky if u try it I have opted for just the autogauge one.. [cos my sender blade snapped and cbf soldering new one on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubblegoose Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 most/all temperature sensors are the same, just thermistors so all the same really (prolly made by the same Asian children too ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
