WATER TEMP GAUGE??

[BADSLED]

I'VE INSTALLED WATER TEMP GAUGE FROM SUMMITT AND WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE HAS TRIED SPLICING IT INTO THE STOCK WATER TEMP SENSOR??? IS THE STOCK SENSOR CABABLE OF SENSING TEMPS OR DOES IT STRICTLY FUNCTION ONLY FOR THE OVERHEAT WARNING LIGHT?? :?

I was told by a Yamaha tech Rep it wouldn't work.

Its simply and open/close switch.
