Welcome to this forum! I've renamed your thread, and moved it into the stock 95-01 section. Which part of NY do you live in? Did you check the sending unit before you opened the dashboard to check the gauge?

Sounds like the problem I had with mine. It is probably the sending unit. it is an easy change. I however went on better and replaced my factory temp gauge with an Autometer one on the piller.

A grounded sending unit (with low or zero resistance) will make it appear as if the vehicle is overheating.
