chief ka kar 0 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 I cant get a reading on the dash for my temp and the fans dont kick in. I have had the fans working so they are ok. Anyone with any ideas would be a big help thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
Rikki 2 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Checked the fuses in the black box just below the expansion tank? Link to post Share on other sites
chief ka kar 0 Posted January 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Yeah i checked them, i did have the fans working with one of the sensors i replaced but the fans where on all the time. So i had to change the sensor to another one but still no joy. I was thinking of taking the clocks out to see if the problem was there but i have no idea of how to check if the gauge is faulty on the clocks. Link to post Share on other sites

chief ka kar 0 Posted January 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Update i finaly got vag com to work with my car . I had a low voltage drop. Cleared the fault and my fans kick in so thank fook no melting will happen. But still no reading on the dash will have to pull them out and see if i can see something wrong with them.

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Check all the pins on the engine harness connection block by coilpack, I've known belt / dirty pins to cause issues with clocks before Link to post Share on other sites
