Hmm. So if you run "sensors" it doesn't show anything? Mine shows an ISA
Adaptor showing each core temp

[11:46 AM] xxxx @ xxxxxx [~] $  sensors
coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0:      +35.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)  

coretemp-isa-0001
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 1:      +35.0°C  (high = +100.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
