96_cvc_b16

I have a b16 in a 96 ex and this morning on the the way to school I noticed that the temp gauge did not move (even after driving like 10min on the highway). I already swapped the dash with one that one that works and the needle still didnt move. Any suggestions or anything i could test?

The 1-wire sending unit for the temp gauge is located below the distributor. Unplug the sending unit connector and ground the wire on the engine. With the key in ON(II), does the needle of the dash temp gauge now rise toward HOT?
