Provided the wiring is not hacked up or something, the sensor itself may have failed.

No, the one on the rad cap side right under it. It's a square looking sensor. Unplug the connector wire pull the retainer clip off and remove it. Clean it real good on the inside put it back in. It might just be full of crud that's all. If that doesn't fix it replace it. Their like $24 at the dealership.
