#1: high engine temperature reading Author: gav49, Posted: Thu Dec 31, 2015 3:01 pm ---- Hi everyone I'm new to this forum your help would be appreciated. My 206 sw {2004} has suffered this problem twice now. The engine temp gauge has suddenly shot into the red from normal running temp of 70-90. On opening the bonnet the rad is cool the pipes are cool and the block is not excessively hot. Plenty of water oil etc.

Wiring issue? Possibly a short circuit to ground or feed, or maybe a broken connection, causing the computer to read it as maxed out...
Could be the sensor itself. Or the gauge...
Does it persist? Do you get the STOP or EML light?
