Engine digital thermometer
There is a well known problem in the defender’s original thermometer. The thermometer is electrical and in order for it to work well it needs a good ground connection to the chassis. Heavy consumers of an electric current like the high headlights and the air conditioner blowers make the thermometer show a high value, that settles when the lights turned off. Those sides affects together with the fact that the original thermometer is not sensitive enough causes a situation when you can’t trust the value on the original thermometer.
