The thermostat is supposed to start opening at 80.5 to 83.5 degrees and fully open at 95. If the temperature after it is warmed up is not near 80 it could indicate the thermostat is stuck open. (Assuming water is topped up and the gauge is reading accurate!).
If the sensor was on the radiator side it would read low, and rise when the thermostat opened. This is not where the fan and warning ligh sensor switches are located so you should be getting a correct reading from where you have mounted it.
