John Deere 4400 temperature gauge

Fixed the overheating problem a few years back. LOL

Dfkrug,
I can't seem to find an external temp gauge that fits a 1999 John Deere 4400...???

I see plenty of 2" round temp gauges for under $10 on eBay. Amazon or your local parts store would have them, too. If you eliminate the turnsignal switch, you can widen the hole to mount it.

Thx so much dfkrug. I ordered one, but the sensor/probe is too long(it hits the thermostat). Every one I have looked at online is too long also. So I ordered just the sensor, even though it cost 3 times as much, but now I have a 2" hole in my dash...oh well.

dfkrug, Did you see the attached image for the temp sensor probe? All of the aftermarket probes are too long to fit...? Thx

Did your sender test bad? In my cases, I needed a new meter and wire, but I kept the sender.

Did not test the sender, but cleaned the connections and it still didn't work properly; so I bought another one and haven't installed yet. I still want the temp gauge I bought to work, so I'm going to try to find a npt(sp) fitting to fit, cause I already cut a 2" hole for it on the dash. Thx for the info!!
