Default Quick question on temp sensor wire colour

Another point to remember is that the instruments often have a separate voltage regulator which should give 10.5 volts to avoid variations in readings when there is a large load on the battery. This may also be faulty so when you are running the temperature gauge will read high as the voltage will be too high (14.5 V). It was an issue on my 411.
