Temperature gauge goes full just after starting.

My dash temp gauge goes full hot, red light just after starting. Not Overheating.

Any ideas , which temp sensor?

There is only 1 as far as I know.


Check this vid, the temperature sensor is right next to the thermostat housing, under the bracket of the 2nd MAP sensor.
