Temp gauge trouble shooting
-
Havent noticed, but I tested at boiling temp and it was spot on.
-
@jens-eskildsen mind looking for me when you can?
-
Yeah, problem is, its often around 20C in my workshop.
-
@jens-eskildsen some help you are np man just let me know if you find anything out
-
Also, when the bike is shut off, them temperature gauge isnt touching the water properly.
Mine was dead set at 20C yesterday, but so was actual temp.
-
@jens-eskildsen if you have the same one as me I'm certain that it will always be on 20 when cold
-
metals don't react very linearly at low and high temps this is a lie but not in a way that would be accurate in a small simple device or respond fast hence engine thermostats are sh!te I'm assuming they are made the same way so instead of opening they move the needle so it's probably just shit at low temps until like 40-50c total guess hope I'm not teaching to suck eggs I'm not knowledgeable on this subject just think it make's sense
-
Mine seems to work fine when tested, and very linear in movement, when compared to the one in the instrument.
They seem to follow each other fine.
For me, its well worth the few bucks.Test the gauge in the frigde/freezer, or in boiling water.

@jens-eskildsen I don't have one yet to test or I would out of curiosity I will anyway when I get one lol
