The water in the radiator may be cold but what about the water in the engine 
where the sending unit is mounted?  You may have a thermostat that is not 
opening.

Another possibility is that you may not have the right sending unit for your 
gauge.  The two work together and must be of the right combination.  If you 
have a non-stock gauge it may not work right with the stock sending unit.  And 
vice-versa.
