installed gauges...do not work right

Alright, well I installed some gauges today, one works right, the other does not.
The one that does not is my oil-temp gauge
When i started it up (car sat for 3-4 days), it was reading 300.
So, I am thinking that something is backwards, and the gauge is reading backwards. Would a backwards ground be responsible for this? I mounted the sensor in the auxillary port above the oil filter.
