My car was slow to heat up and not putting out hot air.I replaced my thermastat and cooling temp sensor. Now my temp gauge will not work at all. I checked the sensor connection and wiring. It is connected properly and no breaks.

If everything is ok, the you may have gotten a bad sensor. Try replacing it.

Let me know what you find.
