god now your asking mate, don't think I know them off the top of my head myself  :oops: (unlike some nuts here.. lol)

not sure if the temp gauge is fused so could be a blown fuse or bad fuse connection  :dontknow:

check the connections to the sender unit as well, might be a bad contact.. If I remember correctly it'll be on the pipe coming out of the block to the top of the radiator (can someone confirm????)

a good starting point for earths is the battery connections, rocket cover earth (heard different stories about this, without it can effect weird stuff yet others don't even have it!).. think there's an earth by the fusebox (check the connections from the fusebox while your there)

errr… think there's an earth behind the dash to (probably need to remove the clocks etc.. for that though but it's pretty easy to do)

anyway hope that helps and I'm not wrong about everything I've written  :wink:
