Temperature gauge

Engine Cooling problem
1996 Hyundai Accent 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual 120258 miles

The needle on the temperature gauge goes crazy (up and down)intermitently. I know the car temperature is OK (not over heated). What is happening? How can it be fixed? Thanks for your attention.
