Post subject:  Vitara Temperature Gauge Problem.
The last couple of days the water temp gauge needle in my Vitara has been jumping up and down from half to nothing.

Anyone had this happen?

Would this be a faulty instrument or the temp gauge on the manifold?

I'll wager the spade terminal on the sender is loose on its rivet, tap it tight with a chisel (lightly) and it should come good

Loose earths or wires could do that.
Not just sender, but motor earths, cluster earths etc.

i had this issue with my last sensor, replaced it and it came good. then last nite driving down the freeway my gauge starts having a fit and i thought i must of been getting air pockets or loosing coolant etc. pulled over not a drop anywhere, had a look at the terminal to see only a 2 wire connection on the terminal 8O , clamped it to get home. put a new one on to day = good as gold.

I had this issue - was a short from where an engine mount rubbed on the wiring harness. It also caused other issues.
