My water temp gauge doesnt work on my s13 with a sr20det blacktop. Does anybody know where the water temp sensor is located on the engine so i can just runa new wire to my gauge.

Thanks

Justin

your stock temperature guage in the cluster? or is this an aftermarket gauge ?

it is usually found on your upper rad hose from the right side of the motor to your radiator. It should have an inline adapter with a temperature probe, you cant miss it.

if its the stock guage its under your throttle body, just follow the wire’s in the clip by the front left of the VC

Its just my stock gauge, all my wiring is fucked and i just wanna run a wire from my gauge to the sensor in the engine but i cant find where thye sensor is. There is nothing on the net for pics or anything on where it is.
