i'm betting the wire that connects to the sender got disconnected. look for a single blade connector sensor on the thermostat housing.
 
If for some reason the wire or sensor that connects to the thermostat is cut or broken, you can spend a little money at Advance Auto and get yourself a water temp gauge for cheap. I ended up buying a cheap-o sunpro gauge and mounting it in the center console. Here's the link to the gauge, and a picture of my setup. The lighting kinda sucked, but you get the idea.
