Does anyone know of the ohm reading I should get when checking my temp guage sender? I grounded each of the sender wires to the battery to verify that the guage and light functioned......Good news they did. Also when I turn the key the guage will move to the far right until I let of the key. When the car is running the guage stays at the far left. My question is would a bad guage sender be the cause of the situation described above?

Thank you in advaance for your help.

Year? Make? Engine?
Give us a little something to go on. I'm assuming its a Fiero but other info can help provide a proper answer.

Most likely the gauge sender needs replacement.

Note an additional problem with that circuit that was a factory error.
