gp to www.contour.org and ask the same question and you will get some
answers from people with maybe the same problem who fixed it...
year, engine size, automatic, standard trans. etc.. put down as much
info as possible on the vehicle...

Check the sensor connection at the wiring harness for possible
corrosion causing an intermittent gauge. When the gauge DOES
work, does your A/C as well?

In some newer model vehicles, the A/C will shut off if the engine
gets too hot. Same could apply in your case if the computer doesn't know
the
engine temp at all, and keeps the A/C off just in case the engine temp was
critical
and it didn't know it.
