I have auto meters as well, though I can't say exactly what the issue is I can say that my fuel gauge (that I still can't see to get to work right) swings way over when conected wrong. The temp gauge, so long as it's conected correctly on the gauge should give you no issue.

i know wut you did wrong , i did the same thing. you have the wire that goes onto the sensor, actually touching the sesor, well , its not supposed too. thats why there is TWO nuts there (hehe nuts) just have one nut go halfway down the sensor and then add the wire (ring-terminal) and then the other nut, now hold the first nut and tight the last one, and now watch it work!!!! YAY, and your welcome.
