EGT Probe location?
Was trying to locate the EGT probe for my Edge, could not find it so far.
Where should it be? I thought it would be at the top of the exhaust downpipe somewhere. I do see a probe connected to the manifold, could this be it?
Thanks,

Sounds, or looks, like a wiener . . .

If it was installed right the probe is in the drivers side exhaust manifold. can be seen by crawling under the truck.

You should send him a pic. Everyone has talked about mounting on the drivers side exhaust but no has posted a ic of where they mount it.

Thank you. That is right, I can clearly see the probe at the bottom of the drivers side manifold.
In the past someone commented that it must be installed wrong after I said what EGT I was seeing.

BBandit, Have not seen anything close to that. 875f is the max I have seen going up a small hill. I do not have a heavy trailer, only a bass boat.
