Alright so here's a long overdue update. I got back and my issue returned with both my coolant and fuel gauge reading low at all times. I took out the fuel pump and checked for shorts in the wires and there were none. I used my multimeter and unplugged the resistors to get a voltage reading to the sensors. (Fuel level sensor and fuel temp). I got a full 12v to the fuel sending unit and a 5v to the fuel temp sensor. So both seem to be getting their full amount of power. I did a resistance test on both gauges and the fuel level sensor failed. It's weird because I tested it right before I installed it the first time and it checked out okay. Funny how things break like that, I may of been to rough installing it idk. Anyways when I tested the resistance on the fuel temp I got 1.5, 1.6ohms. I need to dig in the service manual to check its specifications.
As for the coolant sensor I haven't really looked at it too much, I'm not throwing a code for it but I know it's not reading right. With my diagnostics tool plugged in it reads 130 degrees, but with my hand held thermometer it reads 180ish. So I know somethings up. When I turn the car off and just turn on the electricity it reads fine. I'll update you when I find out more. HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!
