Warning Light Kit Extreme Water Temp

The QUICKCAR RACING PRODUCTS Warning Light Kit Extreme Water Temp (model 61-612) is a complete sender and wiring kit designed to monitor engine water temperature in marine and high-performance racing applications. This kit provides real-time temperature alerts, helping prevent catastrophic engine damage from overheating by triggering a visual warning light when coolant reaches the 235-degree threshold. The 1/2-inch NPT male connection fits standard marine engine blocks and cooling systems, making this warning light kit compatible with most freshwater and saltwater vessels.

The kit includes both the temperature sender unit and pre-assembled wiring harness, eliminating the need to source components separately or troubleshoot compatibility issues. At 235 degrees, the threshold is calibrated for serious boaters and racers who require early warning before engine temperature reaches destructive levels. The compact design—5.5 x 1.5 x 9 inches and weighing just 0.4 pounds—fits easily into tight engine compartments without adding bulk or requiring extensive modification. Installation involves connecting the sender to the engine block via the NPT fitting and routing the wiring harness to the dashboard warning light indicator.

This warning light temperature kit is essential for weekend anglers running recreational outboards, serious offshore fishermen with larger inboard or twin engines, and performance racers who depend on precise engine monitoring. Water temperature management is critical in saltwater environments where mineral buildup and corrosion can restrict cooling flow, and in high-RPM racing conditions where heat generation exceeds standard cooling capacity. Early detection of rising temperatures prevents blown head gaskets, warped cylinder heads, and seized engines—failures that can strand a boat miles from shore or eliminate race performance entirely.

QUICKCAR RACING PRODUCTS is known for precision engine instrumentation in racing and marine markets. This warning light kit represents the standard approach to temperature monitoring: a direct-reading sender coupled with a simple on/off alert system that gives the operator immediate visibility into engine status without requiring digital gauges or complex electronics.
