Title: Heat Sensors!!!
Post by: omegalyn on 11 June 2007, 12:23:45
Hi there.
Can anyone tell me what the two sensors are for that are located on the right hand side (looking from the front) of the rad, one under the main pipe and one at the bottom. I drive 1996 2.0 (X20XEV Ecotec) auto. I think they are heat sensors for the fans, but why are there two?
Thanks
Lyn

Correct, temp switchesv6 has just one, but it is a '2 in 1' type temp switch, with 3 pins. Diesel has 2, not sure about 4 pots.

(There needs to be 2 switches if the car has 2 speed cooling fans)
