Have a single cam with y8 head if it matters, when first got it the car would never warm up at all, after drivin on the highway for a little it warmed up a tad bit but no where near normal temp.

Then noticed the car has no thermostat and the air temp sensor was bad replaced both because it was throwing a code for the air temp no code now but still will not get warm. At all.

Could it be the temp sensor even tho its not throwing a code? Any suggestions would be apprecite it

 

the temp sensor for the guage wont throw a code.

 

so it could be just the temp sensor?im thinking that but what got me before is that the gauge still moved when there wasa no thermo just a tad bit after driving for a while. il see if i can find one and change it to see, one thing after another with these hondas

 

I actually disconnected the temp sensor from the harness and it does throw a code, so im guessing its working. put a new thermostat still wont get warm, i checked the cluster and everything is connected, so i am clueless

 

temp sensor for the gauge is a single wire sensor..The 2 wire temp sensor will throw a code.

 

well then is the 1 wire sensor the one that is hooked up the gauge in the cluster? im just running out of options as to what else it could be

 

Yes the 1 wire sensor is only for the gauge.

 

Just what Mike said...The sensor is a one wire for the guage cluster.

 

well im officially a dumbass the snesor with the 1 wire coming from it is CUT!.

my car is wire tucked and nor do i know where the hell the wire is supposed to connect to, so i have a few bucks for whoever wants to take this on $$$$$$$$

 

location?
