temp gauge not working

I have a 1990 bronco II 2.9 4x4. Recently I just replaced all my fuel injectors to increase my fuel performance. After i put everything back together I noticed that my temperature gauge no longer works it stays pegged at below zero. Before the injector change it worked fine. I have since replaced the temperature sensor and confirmed that the wires connected to the jack were still ok. I tested the old temp sensor and it appears to work ok. testing resistance I see a resistance change the hotter it gets. After all this my gauge still does not work. Does anyone have any idea as to why this would suddenly just stop? Any suggestions?

Are you sure you are testing the correct sending unit? The one for the gauge only has one wire going to it. The one for the computer has two wires.
