michaelhillhouse Report post Posted July 27, 2016 Just got My 2003 Dutch Star out of the body shop and the water temperature gauge is not registering . It has a 350 Cummins and the warning light is flashing. I checked the wires as far as the radiator tank sensor. It has good connections so I don't know where to start.

wolfe10 Report post Posted July 27, 2016 Michael, Assume you have checked coolant level, not just in the overflow jug but also in the radiator. What chassis do you have? Did they work on the cooling system/open the cooling system? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
michaelhillhouse Report post Posted July 27, 2016 I have the Spartan Chassis. Wouldn't the Gauge at least show some kind of reading? The coolant level shows to be OK the only thing working is the red warning light. How do I check the level in the Radiator other than the sight glass on the tank above the engine? As you can guess I'm at a loss where to check next. I did remove the gauge panel on the dash and everything was attached. The only work on the electrical system was the brake lights to work.

blakeloke Report post Posted July 28, 2016 Michael, Do you have a secondary digital readout monitor? We have a Sony rear camera monitor that also gives us status of engine, transmission and other vitals. If you have one take a look at that to see if you get a reading. If so, you could have a bad dash gauge or ground. Blake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
michaelhillhouse Report post Posted July 28, 2016 B;ake , The only readout I have is the electrical gauge on the dash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted July 28, 2016 I had the same issue last year, turned out the sensor needed replacement. No more issues. Is the light yellow or red? Have you called Newmar Tech? Carl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
michaelhillhouse Report post Posted July 28, 2016 Manholt , The light is flashing Red , calling Newmar is my next step . Where was your sensor located Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
michaelhillhouse Report post Posted August 7, 2016 Found out that the gauge was bad . Replaced the gauge and went on our merry way to Colorado and enjoying the cooler weather . It was 102 at home today and we never got out of the 60's here at Creede Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted August 7, 2016 Ha. I'm in Ruidoso, NM for same reason! Had 2in. off dime size hail yesterday...thankfully no damage to coach, but there is nothing but bare limbs on tree next to me! I'm fast becoming a "tree hugger"! Happy you found the problem and to answer your question, it's located in center front or side off overflow tank. Enjoy the Mountains! Carl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wayne77590 Report post Posted August 8, 2016 Happy to hear it is fixed Michael. Way to go. Blake, I live in Texas City and presently on the West Coast and at Fort Lewis Fam Camp, WA and it is 62˚ right now. We left Texas to get away from the heat and we succeeded.
