Review on Accurate Transmission Temperature Monitoring ๐ŸŒก๏ธ with AUTO METER 2640 Z-Series Electric Gauge by Tabish Jadhav

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Does what it should.

Good pressure gauge that seems to work well. It comes with a good range of adapters to connect the transmitter to the gearbox. I like the fact that you can use knife or ring terminals to connect the wires to the gauge. I used ring terminals because I think they are safer. Please note that this kit does not come with cables or clamps. This kit is actually designed to be installed in a dashboard hole. The included plastic mount is a little flimsy, but it will likely work. I didn't use mounting hardware because I installed it differently. If you want to mount it somewhere on a flat surface you will need a bracket like this -> Auto Meter 2204 Mounting Cup. Note that when using this mounting cup you will need to cut the 2 threaded rods on the back of the meter before it can be fully inserted enters the cup. I really like the lighting system in this thing. It's easy to see at night without being uncomfortably bright. One thing I don't like is that the bulb heats up the meter's metal body a lot. You can't put your hand on it, it's hot. It was so hot I was afraid something would melt, so I bought one of the Autometer LED Bulbs -> 3285 Autometer LED Bulb Kit. It replaced the stock bulb perfectly and illuminates the gauge as it should without getting hot. The supplied connection instructions are quite simple. In general I like it.
