My temp gauge constantly stays about one notch above the left most notch. It is in this position whether the jeep is on, off, hot, or cold. If I move the gauge needle by hand to any position, the second I turn the key to ON, whether the jeep is hot or cold, the needle returns to this same position. I figured that it was probably the sensor, so I replaced it - and still the same.
From what I have read, the gauge has a 12v input and a variable ground from the sensor. So I checked the ground on the sensor and there is no ground hot or cold. I'm not sure if this is how it should be or not. Perhaps it is a possibility that I got a defective sensor, but I want to be sure before removing it again and spewing coolant everywhere.
