Well busy day today, I replaced all the lights in the dash, the thermostat, hoses, and the belt. Noticed after all this my temp gauge is sitting below the C, basically parallel to the floor. It was sitting right at the edge of the normal temp area, however as soon as I turned the key it dropped to below the C, and has been there since. It never moves, and grounding the sender wire does nothing - so pretty sure I've managed to kill it somehow. Also, just to be sure I replaced both the ECM and the gauge sending units with no change.
In order to replace the gauge will I have to swap instrument clusters? What about aftermarket gauges, should I look at mechanical or electrical?
Thanks!
