Topic: Connecting Temperature Sending Units

  Hello,

Can someone tell me how to connect the single and dual prong temperature sending units? To be clear, the write coming from the single prong connects to which prong on the dual prong temperature unit? Outside or inside prong?

Thanks,

Eddy

  It doesn't matter which prong on the dual prong sending unit is used. The 2 prong unit is a high temperature switch, which is normally closed. The single prong unit indicates the temperature of the coolant when it is below the boiling point.

When the temperature of the coolant exceeds the closing temperature of the switch, it opens and the dash unit needle indicates HOT.
