If the wire from the oil temp gauge is disconnected from the sender and grounded to the chassis, should this cause the gauge to read a maximum temp ? I assume that as oil gets hotter, resistance is reduced activating the needle in the gauge ?

I'm also trying to troubleshoot my incorrect-reading oil temp gauge. Except mine is on the opposite end in that it's reading too low.
If the sender fails does it typically read too low or does it short to ground and read too high? |
