How do you repair a Packard's temperature gauges?

Answer by  mani56 (16)

Packard temperature gauges are probably not repairable, replacement is the only option. Finding the correct gauge may present a challenge. Knowing the year and model, use a search engine to locate the replacement part. If you are restoring the Packard to museum quality, only genuine Packard parts will be acceptable, otherwise, aftermarket gauges, like SW, will be acceptable.

It is probly the temperature sensor that is not working. Replace the sensor and see if the guage still doesn't work. If not, then replace the guage altogether.
