VDO coolant temp gauge

Hi All

I have a single wire feed to my VDO temp gauge, but have my temp sensor has 2 connections, which currently run back to the ECU. Can I run the gauge from one of these wires? Or do I have to have another sensor?

Thanks in advance
Andy

There are normally 2 coolant temperature sensors / senders.

1 is the two wire Coolant Temperature Sensor for the ECU

2 is the gauge sender - mine is single wire, i assume this is the norm.
