My 2000 TC-30 has the temp gauge out. Just happened last week. I was taking the radiator screen out and cleaning some leaves out. Is there a wire connection near the radiator I could have knocked loose? Where is the temp sensor a wire would go to?
The fuel gauge right beside the temp gauge works.
I figure a loose wire, a lousy gauge, shorted wire and I don't know! Are there fuses for this?

On another note, my ignition switch housing will sometimes rotate with the key. Sometimes the 3 dash lights don't come on (but starter works). I turn the housing back and all is good. Can I just remove the front panel to tighten it up? I haven't wanted to screw it up more than it is.

Wiring is always tricky for me.
