    Video tutorial on how to troubleshoot and repair a non-working temperature gauge on a first generation Tacoma. This is a 2001 model equipped with the 3.4L V6. This is a fairly common problems on these trucks, I did have mine fixed for a bit and then it started acting up again. Mine started out as the needle going to half way right on start up, even when the engine was cold. When the truck was running or the key was on, it was stay at this position and never move. After replacing the sensor, it was fine for a bit, then it completely stopped working, and the odd time the needle would move to half way.
