I did have a problem with my temp indicator, sometimes I never even saw the needle, sometimes it barely clumb to the white block. I replaced the sensor. No luck. I pulled the dashboard to check the wiring, and found that a connector "finger" had been bent by some (other) weekend mechanic. I fixed that, and lo and behold, the temperature indicator started to behave, _and_ the battery stopped going flat in two weeks. There was some weird kind of back-current running.
