The things I do for roommates... and their non-maintained cars, this car has mega issues electrically.

the DIC / HUD / AC / radio work when they feel like it.

thank you for the input !

Iirc there are 2 temp sensors bro just like on most gm cars/trucks ,one for the gauge and one for the pcm.

Did you replace 2 or one?

one .... located under the thermostat housing.

I have only seen reference to one in this system. one temp sender unit and one low level sender.
If you have any more that I don't know of then I am all ears because I am about sick of this car.
I am so frustrated with it that if it doesn't say Volkswagen or Boeing on the name plate I don't even want to touch it ... in other words I am so out of my comfort zone it isn't even funny.


Thanks

It's all good I realize that he is simply joking.
