...or your coolant temp sensor is broken. These have 2 temp sensors, one that feeds the ECM and one that feeds the temp gauge in the dash. The gauge one is in the front right of the motor right under the housing that runs from the air filter to the top of the engine. It is right next to the coolant outlet hose.
You might have a defective sender unit (temperature) or faulty wiring to the same unit.Identify the sender unit and disconnect it whilst your ignition is on. Temp gauge must fall to cold.If it does, sender unit needs replacement and if it stays high your wiring to the sender unit is shorting with ground

sounds like you have a bad temperature sensor in dash or the cable has eitehr broken or come off the heater switch under the dash!!
SOURCE: Temp gauge stay on cold.
Switch ig. on, ground the sender unit wire for about 3 seconds see if the temp. gauge moves, if so change sender unit, if not then it is a faulty gauge reader.
SOURCE: Temperature gauge fluctuates and the heater blows cold air
Definitely check your fluid level in your radiator. Top it off all the way. I've seen that happen multiple times on cars that were low on anti-freeze. If that doesn't work try replacing your thermostat. It's cheap and the easiest place to start if topping off the fluid doesn't get you fixed up.
