i have a auto meter exaust temp gauge pre turbo and it seems to stick on the low side of the gauge. any one ever have this problem with auto meter, any one know a fix for this, would hate to buy another gauge

 

I have a Autometer EGT guage and have not had any problems. You might want to check all power and ground connections just to make sure they are all tight.

 

I never had a problem with anything autometer? Check your grounds and make sure they are clean.

Were you the person that couldn't get that much boost out of your truck or am i confusing you with someone else? If that was you, that might be why your egts are staying low because if your not putting fuel to the fire its not gonna get to hot.

 

yea that was my next question how is the wiring spos to be on that gauge there is no ground just the 2 wires tha come fromt he sending unit

 

If I remember correctly mine had the 2 probe lugs and also a + & - lug. Its been awhile since I put it in but I will try to find the paperwork in the morning.

 

thanks i had mine out today , i just bought a pillar mount so i was getting ready to move the guages up there and noticed that there was only 2 contacts on the gauge red and yellow that run to the probe

 

Two wire pyrometers are purely mechanical and most accurate.

Remove and examine your probe, as they can go bad, have a tip dis-entegrate, etc.

Probes can be purchased by themselves and don't have to come from Autometer, so long as they are the correct range, "K" I think.

 

yea i was gunna take it out tonight and look clean it, but i am unshure about taking it out with it being rusty on the manifold with my luck i would break it off and i realy dont want that
