2019 Roxor. Is the fitting plug marked with yellow the place to install the sending unit for a water temp gauge? Anyone know what thread and size it is? Attempting to install an Equus 8000 mechanical gauge. Thanks

The actual OEM Temp Sensor is right behind the thermostat housing if you want to use that. It takes a 17mm wrench. I do not know the thread specs.

The bolt that you are referencing is the drain plug and that is a M12 x 1.5. The common Temp Sensor Thread is M12 x 1.5, BUT some use NPT threads.

Thanks. As with all things Mahindra, I’m sure my most valuable tool will be a wine cork to seal the hole while I take the OEM plug to Ace to begin my adapter system to marry the temp gauge to the opening.
