    Hey guys. My overhead temp gauge is not working. The compass works fine but there is just 3 little lines where the temperature should be displayed. I made sure the sensor was still plugged in behind the grill and that seems to be good. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    5 year old thread and the OP hasn't been here in 3.

    The link offered by @Manwithoutaplan is what you need to try.
