DESCRIPTION:

Transmission fluid temperature is the single biggest contributing factor to the lifespan of your automatic transmission. Having an accurate, realtime measurement allows you to know when to downshift or when to take your foot out of it. Whether you’re towing or simply trying to harness the power of a built or boosted motor, AutoMeter’s Digital Trans Temp Gauge will give you the most accurate possible measurement for the exact temp of your trans fluid. AutoMeter’s most advanced 1/8” NPT temperature transducer is included as well as a direct plug in wiring harness for ease of installation. An optional trans cooler line manifold is available for another easy installation option.

REVIEWS:

Rated 1 out of 5 by Max W from They can't figure out 1/8NPT27 vs 1/8NPT28 I purchased this kit and the sensor barely went in 1 turn and bound up on the fittings it comes with; I tried different fittings as well to no avail. I then took out my tap and die set which has both 1/8NPT27 and 1/8NPT28 taps and dies. The sensor is cut to 1/8NPT27 and most fittings including the ones that come in the kit are commonly in 1/8NPT28. Once realizing this I called AutoMeter and was told they've been doing this for 40years and never had anyone complain about this and that even though they are different threads it works fine. My concern is that you are essentially cross threading a soft material (brass) and potentially making the sensor useless to reuse or relocate since the threads are now damaged from being forced into improper threads. To AutoMeter if you read this I encourage you to change you sensor thread cutting process to match the more commonly used 1/8NPT28 size and get better employees in your customer support/service department that will try to help instead of tell them off.

Hi, I have a transmission cooler for my drag car that is powered by a 18volt lithium battery. Will this gauge be ok to power with this?

Asked by: BazzaNZ1250

You should have no issues using this with an 18v system.

Greetings, is this temperature gauge compatible with the 2259 short sweep sensor? From what I’ve read the included sensor is too long for my transmission (2004 f150). This shallow sensor was suggested to me.

Asked by: JJ24

Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, 6949 has to be used with sensor 2252. If it does not fit your application you would have to look at using an alternate gauge or alternate application for a sensor.
