Default having another problem after picking my car up...

alright, so i got my Temp sensor changed, my Upper control arms changed, my TRE changed, my EGT sensor changed, my coolant bottle changed....and i think thats it...picked the car up from the shop today...and on the way home, noticed the gauge to the left of the gas gauge is not readin anything....seems like something might not have gotten hooked back up or something, do any of you know what the problem might be??? or if it failed what i need to do? thanks

Default coolant temp? dude, you shouldn't be jacking with anything on your car

especially mbc and such if you don't know what even the gauges are called. sure, crank your car to 23 lbs blindly and wot away.
