Mine do too--way low. My voltage and grounds are fine, so the gauges are bad. Van Café sells both, but you can adjust the temp guage up a bit since it isn't calibrated anyway. Got the fuel guage for about $36, it read 1/4 tank low and I didn't want to mess with it (new fuel sender didn't help).

Hi everyone. 85 Westfalia, 290k km.

Both my temperature and fuel gauges are reading low. I recall reading about that problem over the winter but now that spring has come and the van is out, darned if i can find those emails i saved.

Any suggestions? Bad grounds or something?

Thanks again Jeff
