Temp gage still not working after Thermostat replaced ??
I replaced the thermostat today because the tamp gage was still showing cold after driving the car for a bit. I took the car out and the gage still wouldn't climb after replacing. Is this a sending unit, maybe a fuse? Thanks for any help.

Ground the wire at the sending unit and see if the guage pegs toward full hot.
