Re: [Chrysler300] 300D AMP GAUGE???????????

[jlsavard@xxxxxxx]

Larry,
 
There is an electrical loop formed by the metal loop on the back of the  
gauge.  It is part of a coil inside the gauge that moves the needle of the  
gauge.
 
When current passes through the wire going through the loop, it produces  
(Induces) an electric force inside the gauge, moving the needle.  The more  
current that flows, the higher the needle indicates.  If the current  goes 
the other way, the needle deflects the other way, indicating a discharge  from 
the battery.
 
Please remember, I am more mechanic than electronics technician.

Could someone explain to me How the Amp Gauge works?

When I took the  gauge cluster out I noticed an insulated wire that passes 
through a metal loop  on the back of the amp gauge

Does not appear to be an actual physical  connection

Thanks
