My temp switch is not currently hooked up. I will do so, but how can I test it to see whether it's working?

With an ohm meter the switch should read open to engine ground when cold, short to ground at about 165 deg. F. To test the warm function, remove the switch and heat it in a pan of water on the stove. Use a thermometer to verify water temp.
