Hi all,
I have electrical questions re.: 1988 90 Q
 Does the multifu*ction switch send the signal to the Temp gauge?
I am asking this because my multif... switch apparently was giving false
heating system warnings on and off for a couple of weeks.  Then the Temp
gauge stopped working and no warnings anymore.
 Also, is the switch with the 2 connectors on the same flange as the
multif... for the "idiot" (oops, read: warning) light?
 And last, how do I check the Temp gauge if it's OK?
Sorry, I lost the website with the info on the electrics and am not too
verse in these anyway.

Thanks in advance,
Tihol
