I just picked up a 99 Explorer. It is a 6 cylinder OHV...has an X as the eight digit in the VIN...the temperature gauge isn't working. I saw where you can test the gauge by pulling the connector and grounding the pin, at which time the gauge pegs at HIGH. So the gauge should be OK.
I bought part WT724 from Advance shown here
http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...724&showTitle= changed it out and still nothing....
Can anyone help me on this and/or verify the part I have. Maybe verify the Ford part number as well...
