Dash and temp. problems
Dash and temp problems can be diagnosed and separated by disconnecting the sender and placing a resistor of any wattage from the dash input line to ground. The book says a 15 ohm should give about all segments lit, a 27 ohm should give 4 to 6 lit, and 39 ohm 1 or 2 lit . The 15ohm resistor should give full scale 248 f on a analogue gauge This all should happen about 8 seconds after the ign. is turned on. These are standard value ris. that are avail. instead of the weird ones in the book. Source 1987 FSM. one for the USRM ??
