I watched it more carefully this morning.
At first key turn, with engine cold... the gauge was at 1/4 hot.

Then the red light comes on telling you to look at your gauges, something is wrong.
Then at some point un-noticed, the needle is back to full cold.
If this happens every day the same way, then how can this be a chaffed wiring issue?
Also, the temperature circuit worked fine when the old sender was good (granted it's been broke for about 6 months though).
