Dash Gauge problems

I have a 2002 Mountain Aire on a Workhorse chasis and am having a problem with the temperature gauge bouncing from proper reading to all the way all the way to the hottest. Has anyone else had problems with this.

Thanks, Naed

A bad "gauge ground" is often the cause of dash gauge problems.

Check these points -
1. Loose or corroded ground wire connection. Common on older units
2. Thermostat sticking - replace thermostat
3. Faulty temp gauge- replace gauge

Try these & see if it cures your problem.

Happy Trails
