I think he means the temp gauge.

Your actual thermostat isn't connected to your gauge cluster; it just opens or closes to control water flow. There should be a temperature sensor near it, though. Insert a pin or jumper wire and ground that wire whilst the key is turned "on" but the engine isn't running. If your gauge suddenly reads hot, your sensor is bad.

Before Google we had the Dewey Decimal system. One or two simple questions will tech them to search better rather than ask for lazy handouts. About 20-25% understand it, the others are pissed off and protesting that trump got elected even though they were too busy to bother to vote.

20 years invested, still learning.
