Temperature not Showing

I know what is wrong (not connecting something somewhere )

But me and a friend hand polished my valve cover, and when I started it up, my temperature doesn't show up, but instead its like:



--- 11XXX MI

Anyone have a pic of which connection that is?

No.

Coolant temp sensor is right above the coolant hose on the passenger side of the motor, pointing right up and down. Where the fuel line enters the fuel rail.

The outside temp sensor is located on the drivers side headlight bracket.

The sensor is underneath the driver side headlight bracket. It probably just fell out. I accidently knocked mine out when I was doing my lights and had to go back in and snap it back on. It's a bright green little sensor, cant miss it.
