I put power on to my new build today and the 'AVIA' brand oil temp gauge is reading about 97 deg C. I have not run the engine yet and it's a new gauge. Every thing else on the instrument panel looks ok.
Any informtion about if this will be ok when I start the engine? Engine is a 912ULS-2.
Battery disconnected and gauge still showing 97 deg.
What I did was after checking all connections and circuits I put power onto the master switch then closed the instrument switch and the oil temp guage moved. The engine is isolated and has not been run; its new.
I then turned off the instrument switch and master switch and discinnected the battery.
Any information about what may be wrong is appreciated.
Thanks
Mike
