Greetings all,
I have a '90 22RE and I had a Temp Gauge that would not move off the "C".
I too, thought that the problem was the temp sensor. It was easy to find and
replace and only about $12. So once that was changed, there was still NO
movement. The fix turned out to be a new Thermostat. Bought it at the Dealer
for about $16. That fixed it. AND the cab is warmer now too.
