As of last week, my temperature gauge is reading flat cold at all times. I pulled the sender wire connection and put dielectric grease on it and all that, but that didn't even make it twitch. I'm guessing that compensation board inside of the cluster is dead.

So when I jumper the outter solder leads, do I ALSO have to totally remove the board from the cluster? Or can I just jumper without having to unsolder the board?

It was a point of confusion when I read about the procedure elsewhere.


EDIT: Looks like the board pulls right out like computer RAM, so nevermind.


EDIT EDIT: Can I test my temperature sender by grounding the yellow wire to the engine block and looking at the gauge???
