Fixed (Issue 1):Just needed an Ambient Temp Sensor. For some reason I thought the plug would read it. We all make stupid mistakes, this one is pretty dumb.
Fixed (Issue 2): Temperature read out at -40 degree F. This ended up being the Engine Temperature Sensor on the head. I actually had to get 3 units to get one that worked properly. I did check the wiring, got continuity between the ends and the ECM #2 connector and am getting 5v to the plugs 'hot' wire.
I asked this question in my build log, but making a formal spot for others that may have a similar issue in the future. Symptoms listed below, please add any information you might have here instead of my build log.
Symptoms
-Temperature on Tachometer does read, it did before stripping the Cobalt
-Return button does not work on button panel (may or may not be related)
-When plugged into Torque Lite I sometimes can see temperature and sometimes cannot.
-Cannot see Ambient Temp
-Randomly get "Reduced Power Mode" error (may or may not be related)
Things I've Done
-Replaced thermostat
-Replaced temperature sensor
-Cried and yelled
This is the star of the discussion in my build log as well (posts #164-172)

It might have just been who I got. The lady next to her eventually had to help guide through the process. In the end, they got it done.
