Temp gauge

Temp gauge
Has anyone done a current flow check of a rally pack temp gauge? Seems that no matter how many senders I try, always get a center of scale reading (hot or cold). As the resistance of the sender changes as it gets hot, should cause a current change that causes the needle on the gauge to move. I know the engine temp is good (when hot) (checked with an IR temp scanner) but I am stumped on the gauge.
Any suggestion appreciated. Thanks.

I used the b w d WT 203 on a factory rally pac. No issues. I first started with another brand and it read hot. The car was not running hot. I mapped the temp/resistance on the stove - it was off from the spec Maybe it was a bad unit, not sure or its rang was not compatible. I bought a different brand - the b w d w t 203 and it worked just fine.
