Is there anyone that uses a temperature probe connection that is not in the fluid stream? A probe connection that is attached to the outside of, say a trans line.<br>I know there will be a small amount of temp differance, but just not ready to cut perfectly good trans lines . Me and plumbing don't get along very good . Have fears of didn't make the connections good enough and a million miles from nowhere and i just pumped the last drop of trans fluid out on the road. :'(<br>But i do want to install some type of temperature monitoring for my transmission and turbo.<br>

 

Think about this. I grabbed it someplace and have not actually tried to get the part though.<br><br>Dodge Transmission Line<br>This line, or part of a line, has the fitting in it to put a temp gauge sender in the line.<br>Part # 5011244AA<br><br><br>Chris

 

I agree. I didn't want to cut the line either, but needed to get it done. I'm an electrician(who would've known) and I got mine in yesterday. Works fine now.

 

awmasparky, I am an electrician also. What kind of work do you do? Could you e-mail me how you installed the temp sensor's, and what brand of gauge/gauges you used. What are you monitoring trans, turbo or both<br>

 

Also would be interested in a e-mail on how the install<br>the inline probe for reading temps for the transmission.<br>What type of gauges used, lines connections and parts<br>needed. Wayne

 

Factory crossover line is the way to go. Knocked check valve out of cooler fitting and left one in the rubber hose. Di Pricol<br>gauges in A pillar mount. Painless wiring kit to power sender.<br>Tapped into cig lighter for gauge lights. Highway driving , no towing yet. stop and go will hit 180 but once up to speed falls off rapidly.
