Jeez, I thought "VS" in the subject line would be the key there... :)

It's more than likely a dead temperature sender.

1. Smack dash. If the needle comes up the guage is not working correctly.

2. Pull the sensor wire off (the single wire one, not the two wire
connector) at the engine and earth it out. The guage should go to H, if it
doesn't is the guage is broken and if it does the sender is broken. Don't
leave it earthed too long otherwise both may be broken ;-)

Oh crystal ball, I summons thee for the answer...

I see a VS Commodore from around 1995 with my minds eye... am I close?
