Just curious what’s direction is it off to? Reading hotter than actual temp or less than actual temp?

I haven’t got a clue where the sender came from in my car, it was there when I bought it, but it isn’t original. Parts store senders are notorious for being inaccurate. I read on this forum about lectric limited and ordered one from them. Comparing the temp gauge with new sender to a mechanical gauge and water crossover temp with an infrared thermometer, they’re all real close now.

My other sender read around 50° high. You can test the senders if you wanted too. They should a specific ohm reading at different temps.

It also seems to me 79 or 80 required different senders with different ohm ranges. Just FYI to the second two posters who didn’t mention what year their car was.
