2000 Monte Carlo, Temp gauge not working, Fan running and...

I have a 2000 monte carlo ss. A few months ago the check engine light came on, the temp gauge stopped working, and after shutting the car off you can hear the fan running for about 10-15mins after i shut it off. I assumed it was the thermostat, so that was the first thing i changed. For the first few weeks everything seemed fine. No check engine light, temp gauge worked...then today suddenly it all started happening again. What could be causing it if the thermostat has already been changed? what should i try next?

Measure the resistance of the CTS. If the resistance is reasonably close to the table, the sensor is probably O.K. That doesn't mean all the circuit connections are intact, however.
