Sonds like you might have either damaged or forgot to plug in the temp sensor.
It's right in front of the #1 header primary on the drivers side

I forgot to plug the ECT sensor back in after doing a spark plug and wire change this weekend. Once I started the car, both fans turned on and the temperature gauge didn't work.
