Gauge Problems

[Ryannn]

Temp never moves from the C. How would i go about fixing this? Would I replace the sensor?
The Battery Gauge when the truck is off is all the way to the left, and when turned on it goes to the center, but when I use my turn signal it twitches to the left. Help?

Im not sure about the temp. but the battery sounds normal. It doesn't read when its off. thats why it goes to the left. your turn signal use a bit of power so thats why it would twich. I have seen it in my trucks. more so when I have more things on.

I think its becasue the alternator has a small power output. vs whats in your F350

That could be true. Thank you for your help.

The temp gauge problem is often a dirty connection at the sensor, wriggling it about will often fix it for a while. My amp gauge twitches in time with the turn signals but the actual battery voltage stays constant, it's always done it, I just ignore it.
