Title: Guages and sending units
Post by: SomeThingWilder on March 07, 2016, 06:11:51 PM
So is it true if u have autometer guages you need autometer sending units and so on and so forth for all  other guages out there on the market?

Not true! As long as the sending unit is in the same ohm range for the sweep of the gauge it will work like a champ... My last sending units I got for my auto meter gauges I got from Napa

I got new hardin marine guages, I have autometer water temp and oil pressure  senders,  now both my guages are not reading .  So maybe they r not in the same ohm range?

That would be my guess yes sir... You could contact the manufacture of the gauge and maybe ask them the ohm's?

Wrong senders. The correct senders are cheap-ish and available from any of the online retailers that sell Hardin gauges.
