Ok redid the wires a couple weeks back. and now my temp gauge does'nt work. and if it does it barely climbs. i have made sure sensor has the single wire connector plugged in. could this just be a random stroke of bad luck and i need a new temp sensor so my gauge reads correctly?

 

Safe bet change the sensor. If it still does it post back.

 

Will do.

 

Might wish to try and pull codes also while you are at it.
