Coolant temp sensor

[talkingcars]

You have 2 sensors on your car. One temp sensor does the dash gauge, the other does the ECU.

Unplugging one will cause your dash gauge drop to zero, the other should cause the fan to come on.

I can't remember which colours you will have on your car but if you look under the bonnet you should be able to see them.

You sure?? I thought that was the old k series sensors located near the rad and they had two, newer k series and the kv6 only had one? Anyone else confirm this?

K-series engine have two temperature sensors, one for gauge, second for ecu. At this moment I am not sure for KV6 engine, so would need to check for it.
