When I did my dashboard swap, the temp gauge was the only thing that
didn't work afterwards.  it read about 1/2 of what it should have, which
meant higher resistance.  Removal and testing (at 32/212F=0/100C) of the
sender showed it to be ok.  disassembly of the inst cluster and
reassembly made problem go away... must have been a 500 ohm bit of
dirt?!
