Re: [Chrysler300] Temp Gage

[Ray Jones <hurst300@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Analyzing your email, it DOESN'T sound like a sticky Thermostat. You 
should be able to tell if the engine is extremely hot with the hood 
open.
You said that it all seemed normal when you opened the hood at Max 
temp. So, you're getting false info. Probably the sender or the gauge 
voltage regulator.
Any way, the problem sounds like an electrical one to me.

Hi,

  The last 2 times I drove my K, the temp. gage went all the way up to 
hot
  soon after getting on the road, then after a while it went down to 
normal temp.
  I opened the hood at max. temp. and I couldn't smell or hear anything 
out of
  the ordinary. The top of the radiator was hot but not real hot. Sounds
  like a sticky thermostat, but the one in the car is only about a year 
and a
  half old and only has about 2,000 miles on it. Could it be something 
else?
  Should I just go ahead and change it? Has anyone tried the "fail-safe" 
type?

  Thanks,


  George Clineman
