Hi. Your Corvette is known to have gauge cluster issues. Have you tried unplugging the temp sensor and recheck the cluster. With it unplugged, key on, the cluster should read zero. You can also try unplugging both the sensor and the cluster. Then test the wire at the sensor. It should be open (no ground). if it passes then you may need a new gauge cluster. if so here is a name of a company that can help. Advanced Electronics Remanufacturing (AER)

Remove the wire to the engine temp sensor and ground it...if dash gauge pegs replace the engine temp sensor. You can't fix the sensor, it's replace only.
If the gauge in the instrument panel is tango uniform you'll have t? replace the instrument cluster or the gauge if it's separable. Check with your lincoln/mercury dealer or Ford (they picked up mercury) dealer to find ?ut.
THERE ARE TWO TEMPERATURE SENSORS. ONE FOR THE ECU AND ONE FOR THE GAUGE. THE ONE FOR THE GAUGE IS USUALLY A SINGLE WIRE, EITHER WAY TRY REPLACING THE SECOND ONE.
Unfortunately No, All of the Guages run straight into the Computer. If you bypass them you will have error codes out the Wazzu and lights on the Dash Constantly. Try a Salvage yard for a Replacement Guage Cluster.
Most likely this is the common 03-05 Cavalier instrument cluster problem where the stepper motors on the cluster's circuit board go out. It can be fixed, check this page for more on how to get it taken care of - Cavalier fuel gauge broken
Are we replaceing the whole cluster or individual instruments
