Fan Switch Problem

I put in a Jet fan switch to match the Jet chip that is in my car......and a 160* thermostat....now my temperature gauge doesnt work......just sits at 100*.......but when the fan kicks on, it shoots up to the red......whats wrong with it???
should i just run a new gauge?

This may be a dumb question, but did you replace the fan switch between the #6 and #8 plugs, or the temp sending switch between #1 and #3 plugs? Sounds like you changed the wrong one...
