Temp gauge proberly not working due to a broken wire, wire off the sender unit, or sender unit[sensor] faulty.

My temp gauge didn't work for a while. I had a look at all the wire connections and couldn't find any problems visually. Just moving the wires about seems to have cured it though!

Perhaps get your car well warm and then get someone to sit in the car while you move the wires about and see if the gauge moves? Other than that it'll be some tedious work with a multimeter for a proper fix.

cheers jack, that may be a good quick fix.
