Temp Gauge

1970 C-20
I had the instrument panel out and notice the connection plug contacts were dirty; I cleaned them with some steel wool. Didn’t disconnect the battery so got some sparks (I know I’m an idiot). Now has soon as the key is turned on the gauge pegs hot. I have checked the wires for shorts, replaced the sending unit, and replaced the gauge. I hung the gauge outside the panel and ran a new wire from the sender to the gauge and a new wire from gauge to ground, still same result. Any ideas.
