Testing coolant temp sensor?

Testing coolant temp sensor?
Aight, the coolant temp gauge in the truck doesn't register anything, and my assumption is that it's likely the sensor, but I wanted to see if anyone knew if I could test the sensor with a multimeter to make sure it's bad before I replace it? I checked the continuity and was getting something like 25 ohms if I recall correctly.
(I like to confirm things before replacing, learned my lesson about part throwing before).

Not sure what the normal readings are for that sensor as it is only used for the gauge and I have never had an issue with mine. However, they are quite cheap if you suspect it to be bad. Would not break the bank to just replace it.
