when i warm my car up the gauge goes to its normal position which is in the middle. Once i start to drive for a bit the needle drops to cold again like if it never warmed up, can anyone help me out and would my car mess up if i kept driving it like that.
Test the gauge by unplugging the sender unit wire at the thermostate housing and grounding it, if the gauge moves all the way up, then it's the sender unit needs to be replaced.
But first make sure your cooling system does not have air inside. Bleed your cooling system first. You can still drive it, but you won't know if it overheats.
maybe even check to see if there is a thermostat in housing if anchovies test's prove ok.....may be missing or stuck open
itsd the sending unit. mine is fucked also. and it does the same exact thing, it acts like a reverse rpm gauge
ACT Stage 1, Short Ram Intake & 2.25 Dynomax custom catback w/4inch carbon fiber tip. Thats it for now.
Putting the paint back on after
SOMEONE STOLE MY PAINT!!!!!
could it be also that it needs anti-freeze in the reserve tank, maybe it doesnt have any
my friend's CRX did the same thing. I changed the thermostat, which is located in a really stupid spot. But, it cured the problem.
Mine used to do that too. I just did everything you guys suggested and it fixed the problem.
