[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 430221, member: 18789"] Shouldn't be related to the light harness although I guess stranger things have happened. The light harness is literally just controls of the lights and the windshield sprayers. the grounds in that harness attach to the grille but again, only for the lighting circuit so if those were messed up you'd just get sporadic or fully non working lights up front, and no sprayer action. I'd say the 195 is definitely worth changing, it'll keep you at least at 195 degrees at a minimum which is good, although yeah maybe the radiator or water pump needs some attention. Something a lot of old Jeep owners do is they buy a jeep and immediately throw a whole new cooling system at it. Radiator, water pump, fan clutch, tstat, radiator cap, and flush the fluid. Don't know if that's a waste of money or not but it sure is hard to truly overheat when everything is new. Of course, we still aren't 100% sure your gauge and sender are even representing the numbers properly. Although they probably are, and it is probably representing actual fluctuating temps in the system. [/QUOTE]
