Could be a bonus for those with cracked OEMs. (n/m) - KevinsFairlady 10:55:53 08/20/20 Make sure your aux fan is functional. - Doug71zt(CAN) 18:49:52 08/20/20 Re: Make sure your aux fan is functional. - KA8 09:57:58 08/21/20 Isn't the OEM gauge & sensor highly non-linear, with - black300zx 08:13:24 08/21/20 Exactly this. (n/m) - Barry(TN) 09:26:48 08/21/20 True.

(n/m) - itsa300zx 16:31:30 08/21/20 Makes sense. But how accurate is that sensor? (n/m) - ZXoltan 16:42:51 08/21/20 Considering the ECU makes decisions on that sensor, it's - MixManMash 17:33:07 08/21/20 Plenty. It reads in single digits. (n/m) - Bernie (NoVA) 23:24:30 08/23/20 Good to know. thank you sirs. - ZXoltan 10:24:46 08/24/20 Because the dash gauge is non linear.
