eagle tempt. sensor wiring

Gary LaBombard · May 22, 2015, 09:28:28 AM

Hey guys,
I am not sure if I can post questions I know I will have reconnecting up my 8V71 engine on the (Technical Section) of BCM and have anyone respond as it says (Read Only)? so I will post here until notified differently as I will have many questions in the future that I do not want to bore others with as I put my beast back in production.

I wish to rewire in my wires for the Engine Temperature Sensor which has 3 posts on it as viewed in photo below.
Post are labeled:
Post # C
Post # NC
Post # NO

I have (3) Labeled wires also and wish to place them on the correct post of the sensor above. Can any one with a Eagle Wiring diagram tell me which post these three wires go to?
Wire Numbers:
#62
#79
#82

NOTE: I double posted photos, sorry, unable to delete 2 of them.

Cliff or anyone,
I need to know what number wire (#62, #79, #82) goes to what letter post (NC, No, C) . 1973 05 Eagle My electrical drawings are not too good a shape. There is no actual view of the sensor.
Thanks again,
Gary

I have no idea Gary but will look it up for you later today ? have you downloaded the schematics from Kysor

No I did not download any schematics, I did not know this was available. Will check to see if I can get this for me to have. Cliff, I just went to kysor but this does not help me decide per the Eagle drwg. what wires are what to connect to sensor.

In my 1985 model 10 book.

79 N/O terminal
82 common terminal
62 shows to go on the N/O terminal on the oil pressure switch which also goes on to
the auto shutdown relay.

65 shows to go on the N/C terminal on my temperature switch

This is what mine shows in the book. Since yours is a 73 it may be different. 2 out of 3 wires are the same so you probably could hook up the 3rd to the remaining terminal and be ok

Since 82 is common, turn on the bus electrical and check for 12v to ground with a meter. It should be powered when run switch is on. If so then you can check wire 79.

If you jump 12 volts from 82 to 79 your "overtemp alarm" should engage.

If anyone sees an error in my synopsis, please correct me.
