Default Thermostat/water temp gauge problem $@^!#& get your attention?? :)

my temp gauge was working about a week ago, now it just decides not to work.

heater works and blows hot air so i dont think the thermostat can be closed or open... which ever makes it not heat up.

wires to the cluster are hooked up as well.

the wire prolly fell off or wire snapped..

the sensor is located right behind the heater hose coming off the block..

if u dont know where that is, its right behind the waterneck.

o yeah its 1 wire, not the plug

the lower one shouldnt be as hot. thats where the water goes after it gets cooled inside the radiator. it should be less hot. I would check the sender its under the dizzy. It could also be the gauge in the cluster, I have seen them go bad.
