Re: Upgraded my alternator and now my temp gauge is reading way hot

Alright I'll try that. I recently replaced the sending unit and the connection. Plus, it just happened with this new alternator and battery... but what you suggested couldn't hurt. My sending unit wire runs up and around and down from my heater core hose so the wire picks up a little heat there. Dunno if it's enough to affect the resistance reading at the sending unit.... it hasn't affected it in the past so I'm guessing it's not an issue. Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it.
