water temp gauge needle does not move

When the pointer of the water temp gauge needle reaches zero, it indicates that the needle of the water temp gauge does not move. It can be roughly divided into the following reasons: 1. There is a problem with the circuit, which may be due to factors such as short circuits, burnt wire coils , and poor line contact . 2. The water temperature sensor is broken . The water temperature sensor is broken and cannot detect the temperature signal of the water temperature , so the water temperature gauge will not move . The reason may be that the electrical heating coil of the sensor is burnt out or has poor contact . The water temperature gauge on the instrument panel is broken and the pointer won't move .

I can't make accurate judgments because I can't see the real car. In reality, it is recommended to go to a professional repair shop or 4S shop in a timely manner and have the staff check to see what the problem is . Only by identifying the problem can we remedy it. Under normal circumstances , the scale pointer of the car water temperature gauge will change with the change of water temperature . The normal water temperature is around 90 degrees. If it's too high or too low, it's not normal . When the vehicle starts, the water temperature will be relatively low, especially in winter. At this time , it is necessary to preheat the vehicle first, and then drive according to your driving habits after the water temperature is normal. If the water temperature is too low , the engine temperature will be too low. At this point , violent driving can lead to drawbacks such as difficulty in ignition , increased fuel consumption , and abnormal idle jitter. It also increases the wear of engine components.

Generally, due to the overall failure of the automotive instrument panel, it is possible to check whether the fuse on the instrument panel is burnt out, and whether the wiring on the instrument panel is loose or short-circuited. Recommend going to a maintenance shop for maintenance and inspection. Generally, the middle position of the pointer on the water temperature gauge is 90 degrees, and 90-95 is also the optimal operating temperature for the engine . If water temp gauge needle does not move , should check carefully.
