Another numptie question probably.... Water temp gauge

[renmure]

I am sure this is all basics for some of you, but it is advanced for me so bear with me...

My water temperature gauge has stopped working. It is a standard dial and was working fine, then I noticed the needle had just dropped back to zero and now doesn't move. It is an LS2 engine.

Is there anything I should poke or prod or wiggle, and if so, what and where is it? Or anything more technical I should worry about?

I have tried tapping the front of the gauge to see if that helped because sometimes when I am flying a plane and the instruments go wonky it can sort things out, but no such luck in this case

I (sometimes) hate cars!!!

Many thanks Steve and also to Mark, who I bought the car from almost 1 months ago and still emails help to answer my numptie questions.

Problem solved. Something had indeed become disconnected and needed reconnecting.

I (sometimes) love cars again
