Right I can now get the warning light up, but the gauge doesn't work does anybody know the correct wiring from the dash to the rad, which is where the temp gauge tack off is is it just the 2 wires from the dash orange and green? if so how is this wired up on the rad does it need an earth, or is the temp sender somewhare else on the valver? haynes manuel is a bit pox, this is the last item on the list Rolling Eyes at the mo Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes any help greatfully received

maybe im reading it wrong or dont know your setup but on the valver, the sensor in the rad is just for switching the fan on when it reaches a predetermined temp.

The sensor for the dial on the dash is located on the head, either in the side, next to the CTS or in the stat housing if it is a later style.

Brown round connector.
