85 FJ60 have an issue with the temperature gauge it only moves up a small amount above the bottom of the white, not mid way through the white like it normally did. I thought it was the sender on the engine block so I removed the sender place it in a glass of water and measured the resistance levels at different temps and it showed to be working properly. Drove the LC around and took resistance levels with the LC hot, it showed that the car was running a the proper temp. ( not the thermostat ). Replaced the dash board gauge, needle rose to the same position with the new gauge. Checked to see if there was any loss in continuity from the sending unit to clip the plugs into the instrument cluster, no loss. Checked to see the same from the cluster pins to the gauge terminal, no loss.
It doesn’t jump around like it would if the ground wire was loose
I am at a loss, any suggestions on where to look next?
