temp gauge Options

[icemen39]

anyone have any idea why my temp gauge does not move? it stays in the same spot whether i have been driving for hours or if the car is off even. i changed the temp sending unit but nothing. im guessing the gauge itself? but im not positive. but all of my other gauges work fine its just the temp gauge im stumped .

what temp gauge is this: water or oil?

if it's an oil gauge, where is the sending unit installed? i installed mine near the oil filter where i have a sandwich plate with bung where i can place the sending unit. if the sending unit is too far, the oil might not be that hot enough to get a good reading.

another reason could be the ground not properly installed.

let's also wait for other response from the gurus.
