Yes guys it is true, I was so bored this morning I started reading the Bellagio wiring diagram - gotta getta life!
One would assume all Carc bikes would share similar systems so this is what I found.
The 'cylinder head temp' sensor and the 'intake air temp' sensor are connected with a single input to the ECU. So I wondered where my dashboard ambient temp info came from.
Turns out on the Bellagio, Pin 10 at the dashboard - orange wire connects to 'Intrument Panel Air Temperature Thermistor', the (red) earth wire of which joins the earth wire running from the left hand switch block.
(Other than that I don't know what I'm looking for)
Anyway, if we can determine the resistance/ohms/whatevers range it operate in, could we not insert a similar 'oil temp' sensor in an oil line/galley for "OIL TEMP" reading on the dash?
This could be very handy for you oil head 8V boys.
