My heater works fine, and there are no signs of the engine overheating.
The temp gauge itself just won't register anything at all. Just looking for some ideas
Of how to troubleshoot and fix the problem. Any info would very helpful. Thanks:)

Could be the gauge itself, wiring or the coolant temperature sensor/switch
