No need worry about it unless the needle goes real high and/or your fans are not kicking on. Especially if you have sufficent amount of coolant in the radiator and the needle appears to be working properly (doesn't move around erratically). Pop the hood let it run and see if your fans are going on. I guarantee if you've driven it for more than 10 mins and it hasn't overheated then your fans are working, especially in hot weather.

To test the fans, turn on your a/c, the fans should kick on with the a/c. And the ect sensor is located to the left of the thermostat. Follow the upper radiator hose to the thermostat, look left, and it's right there.

Isn't it to the right of the thermostat? Or am I dyslexic and should join Mothers Against Dyslexia ( DAM ).
