What temp should the dash light come on at? Are the other sensors available, for lower temps. I'd like the light to come on at 200* Cheers!
i believe the light comes on at 245 degrees. you could replace the factory sender with any thermostatic switch that switched to ground. an electric cooling fan switch could be made to work, and you can pretty much pick any temp you want.
Got all the gauges, just looking for an idiot light to come on around 200*. You know I'm driving it, so keep the idiot comments short please. Cheers!
:laugh::laugh: I promise, no idiot references. I googled looking for adjustable water temp sending units for lights. http://www.smileysracing.com/shopping/?ic=1286 Seems like 230* is the lowest so far. Was looking on some other Forums, and some advise using an adjustable switch like the ones that come with electrical fans. http://www.ebay.com/itm/GM-Adjustab...ch-for-12v-Electric-Cooling-Fan-/281730903233 http://www.ebay.com/itm/JEGS-Perfor...justable-Fan-Temperature-Switch-/310384116222
Thanks Larry! That's what i currently have. Actually 2 of them running 2 16" fans. #1 set @150*, #2@190* with #1 fan running the car runs @185 most days. The "dash" light is an independent "Idiot" light just in the case one of the fans or electric water pump isn't cooling plus i won't have to watch the temp gauge ALL the time. I'll figure it out, one way or another. Cheers!

Thanks Guys, i went with 200*on/185*off switch, it turn fan#2 on 100% fan#1 turns on 50% at 160* when fan#2 come on the temp light also comes on, reminds me to keep an eye on the temp gauge. so far, so good. Cheers!
