Default Re: 1951 Temp gauge problems

6v may be a little much unless there is additional resistance in the circuit to replace the gauge. Think the sensor would be seeing more in the 3v to 4v range. No need to fry sensors attempting to test them!

If you have the gauge in the test setup, then 6v is appropriate and a small battery would make it easier to work with.
