Default digital water temp gauge, correct wire for temp sensor ?????

Hi,

I have wired up a pivot digital water temp gauge today but Im a bit unsure about the temp sensor wire. On the instructions it says you have to wire the temp sensor wire directly to the temp sensor........but on the picture it shows it connected to a wire coming out of the ecu In the end I spliced it into the wire coming off the temp sensor on the block, I then switched the gauge on but it wasnt reading a temp. My main question is does the wire coming off the block go into the ECU and 'out the other side' to the dash board ? If so does this give a different type of signal which would enable my digital gauge to work ?

Alternatively anyone else who has a digital gauge fitted, where did you connect yours to ?

cheers, Duncan
