Took the car out earlier all was fine, when I got back in after about 20 minutes the temperature gauge is not working, I renewed the dials about 3 weeks ago and they all have worked fine, until today....:(:

Anyone got any ideas?????

Yep !

Just looked and someone had done a botched job on the sensor on the pump by stuffing the wires into the spade connectors.
I have removed the plug and re crimped and soldered the wires back on and heatshinked the joint. All working now.

Cheers....
