check and wiggle wire at the temp sensor and clean connector and put a little Dielectric silicone on connector. You can but this silicone at any parts store.
Hi, This can be caused from one of the following. 1. The gauge it self. 2. The sender unit is faulty. 3. The wiring or connection on the sender is faulty. Have these 2 areas checked. Let me know if you need more information. Thanks Jason
It could be the coolant temperature sensor, you'll need to find it, should be located either in the intake manifold or the block. You may need a manual to find this.
Other possibilities include a faulty gauge (the gauges in the cluster can wear out over time), or a sticking thermostat. Have the cooling system pressure tested to check for internal leaks. You may want to have the coolant flushed as well, it's likely it may not have been done due to low mileage.
2/5 of the hole range is totally normal temperature.
