Temp gauge not working

All the gauges are driven by data provided by the PCM. If only one isn't working..... and the PCM isn't setting any codes..... might be a bad gauge. You can try the cluster test, see if the gauge reacts. Ignition off, press and hold the trip/reset button, turn ignition on. (not start) Once the tests start, you can let go of the button. All the lights should test, and all gauges should run thru a full sweep.

Possible. But, I would expect the PCM to set a 'engine too cold too long' code if it wasn't working.... and you drove for any distance. That, and if the sensor just fails, the PCM thinks its -40 degrees out, and positively DUMPS fuel into the cylinders, which really doesn't work very well, unless it IS really cold out.
