The same thing just happend to me. I just bought a whole new cluster on ebay. They are going for fairly cheap. I really don't like the though of the temp gauge not working.

Wow, You waited 21 whole minutes.

Did you check the FSM?

The only thing i can think of (after looking at the wiring diagram) is that maybe the connector for you gauge cluster is loose.

If you're missing a connector or something is shorted in your gauge cluster, your wires will ground through other wires. This results in some gauges to work while others don't.
