1-3-2-4 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 On my '05 Legacy GT I just installed I used a new ECTS connected it and the fans run on full and the gauge goes right to hot I don't understand what's going on.. that's the only issue I have right now.

Gloyale Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 faulty sender or pinched wire (short to ground) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1-3-2-4 Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 I'll check the wire but if it's pinched pinched on what? What happens if you disconnect the wire it should read cold correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1-3-2-4 Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 Also let me guess because it's showing as thinking it's hot then it's cutting back on fuel right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I'd guess a faulty temp sensor. Did you keep the old one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartless Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 why are you using a used temp sender? why not new? less than $20 for a new one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1-3-2-4 Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 (edited) It's a new sensor but like I said I found the issue I had the purge solenoid and the CTS plugs mixed up. btw this is the sensor I installed not that it really matters https://www.summitracing.com/parts/smp-tx157 Edited October 3, 2017 by 1-3-2-4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
