Know your going to hate to hear this, but I think we need to go back to square 1 and start all over again!!
There's a way to reset the SG2 to factory defaults. It's on page 56 of your User Manuel ( push lower right function button twice, use upper bottoms to cycle through screen to" use defaults?". This will clear all custom gauges you have entered Then let's work on one gauge until we get it to works right! But first step is to verify you have Version 4.05 or 4.06
If you do have V 4.05 or 4.06 and it is communicating with truck we should be able to get it going

Quick check. The ECT ( engine coolant temperature is already factory programed into SG2 it's titled " FWT". after confirming V/4.05 or 4.06 bring up that Gauge and see if it's reading right.
