Which sensor!

[cliokongen]

Hi all...

A quick question ... which sensor controls the electric circulation pump and fan after the engine has been switched off?????

I thought it was the temp sensor in the radiator, but trying to disconnect it the fan kept on going!!! WTF??? Does anyone know?

cheers Michael

the temp sensor is in teh thermo housin at the end of the head.

Thx BenR

So... the fan and aux water pump is controlled by the same sansor as the temperature gauge??? (the one on top of the thermo housing) (sorry, been a long day)

that thermo sensor does everything, basically it jsut informs the ECU and it makes its choice, cold start fueling below 20 degC etc etc........

try it, not 100% sure

erm nooo thats not right.

The aux water poump is relay controlled. the relay is on the nearside inner wing. Might be grey in colour, dunno and I cant be arsed goign out to the shed to have a look. Its the one with the rubber boot around the connector.
