    Sounds like you have a short in there somewhere. Exact same thing that happened to me. Your multimeter will be your best friend for this fix. When you first turn on the car, will your temp gauge go all the way up and then down again like the others?

    My temp gauge was reading just over the very bottom line(70 I believe) then I put in the 180 tstat and it jumped up to the 1/4 mark, just under.

    Forgot to reply!

    Tested wiring and the sensor with my multimeter... All was fine. I let the car sit for a couple more days before I took it to my friend. I started her up and all was perfectly normal. Temp readings have been 100% normal ever since. Gauge is fine.

    Completely strange.
