The Temp Guage will not work.

So today i went to autozone and bought the sending unit,http://www.autozone.com/autozone/cat...dName=Duralast was 11.99 and it was on the top/front of engine tucked in behind the ac compressor/therm etc.

Well guess what it still just sits on 0 degrees. Now i see a sensor on the drivers side somewhat near the middle cyl. I originally thought this was the temp one, but after i bought i realized it was elsewhere and found it.

Been reading on here about these things having 2 or 3 sensors, and I am wondering if this one on the drivers side is what i am looking for, like is it just to the guage while the one i changed was to the computer? (Kinda looks like it sets inside a metal doughnut ring thingy.)

Problem is I cant find another one at the parts places, anyone can confirm/deny or maybe post a link/part number to the one i am looking for?

Thank you so much for any reply!!!!!


Edit: I have no voltage meter or any way to test that




flushed the coolant the best i could. (not a backflush, just drain, fill run, drain fill run with water over and over.)
OK, it sounds like you got the Temp. Sensor (#36403 ), when should of gotten a Temp. Sender Part # TS253. Your Temp Sender is located just below the number 3 spark plug. You should see 1 wire coming out of it. Post back your findings.
