Engine temperature

[MGRead]

So I'm driving the car and its decides to stop showing temperature. Any help

Jiggle the wires on the coolant temp sensor, or pound on the dash.....

if I turn the car off it move to Max then back to nothing. Where is the sensor on my car

 

[Scottydoggs]

under the t stat housing in the lim. aka under where the upper hose clamps on the engine.

ok I see it. the car is way to hot to put my hand there. the car is not showing any code yet. I just had the oil changed on Friday. could they **** anything up

 

[MGRead]

also it on a 04 Grand Prix GT2 3.8 III

Not unless the moron that was changing the oil touched something he shouldn't have. Let the car cool off and then try it.

[MGRead]

[MGRead]
