i don't think my tempertaure sensor is working. the temperature dial always shows cold??? even when the car is hot and it's giving off hot air.

does anyone know where it is? and how much it would be to replace?

sounds like you have air locks in the coolant system, i recommend flushing and refilling, and take out the temp sensors on both the rad and cylinder head and give them a good clean. also check the thermo by boiling it in a pan of water and seeing if it opens.
