do u no if it is a 2pin or a 3pin sencor i rang a place up yesterdai about it they asked me how many pins it got

[Bickerton]

The "pins" are the ECU im not 100% on this but you will get the jist pre 2000 is single pin, 2001+ is 3 pin, not 100% on the years but this is the principal, i thought temp sensor was same for all of em tho?

[AndySAXO]

nope there are 2 differnet sensor, there is a 2 pin one and there also a 3 pin one they use, you need ot look at the one on the car atm, look inside the connector there be 2 or 3 pins inside there.

iirc the 2 pin is pre 2000 and the 3 pin is 2001 on, this also is the case for some other sensor on saxo, like map sensor two differnet types of them.

[Bickerton]

are you sure its the sensor and theres not air trapped in the coolant system this will cause the temp to rise dramatically and be potentially serious to the engine??
