Anyone know why the Ambient Temp gauge on a Street Glide would not work? I dont want to go to the dealer so soon and get it fixed.
Some else told me that it was normal for these to be bad. Exactly what goes bad?
The Moco makes them inaccurate purposefully to encourage you to spend $130 on the oil-temp gauge, which unlike the air-temp gauge is very useful.

UPDATE:
2008 Street Glide Temp Sending units are NOT located in the Faring!
Hmm, so where has it been relocated? Question #2 is then why does it still not work?

Good Info.
Also "'07-later models require separate purchase of P/N 26133-07."
Whatever that is?

I followed the wires to under the gas tank. The local dealer told me the unit is indeed under the gas tank also. Seems like it would read hot there.
