Title: Temperature sensor
Post by: goutoe on July 23, 2018, 11:35:41 AM
My bus has a temp light on the dash as well as a temp gauge on the dash and one on the rear start panel, The light comes on when the gauges read around 190 degrees, I assume the light sensor is bad? at what temp should the light come on? are there different settings on the sensors? anyone have a part# for the correct one for my 6v92? Thanks>>>> John.

I would verify the gauge before I condemn the sensor.

Both gauges are reading 190 to 195 I could check water temp with my temp gun but I cant believe both gauges could be bad.

You can buy the 205 sender from Diesel Pro it will be the one with 2 or 3 wires they are not cheap I think it cost me around 80 bucks for the 2 wire sender
