    M10 Temp sensors

    okies, In my M10, there is three sensors in the thermostat housing, and two in the bottom of the rad

    assuming that there is one for the guage, one for the idiot light and one for the Computer, what are the other two for? electric rfan maybe?? ANYONE, please let me know wich is wich, as this is NOT a street car I can eliminate some and need to access a port for my aftermarket guage that is going in the guage panel.

    thanks

    I think that one of the ones at the waterneck thing is the thermo-timeswitch. I think you can get rid of that one if you aren't running a cold start injector. I know the other 2 are the ones for the PCM and the gauge. Best way to find out...are to unplug them while the engine is running. Unplugging the one for the PCM will stall the car (or make it run like shit), the one for the gauge will cause the gauge to shut off (read below cold), and the other, well, never tried that one.

      Without looking at the tags that are still on the sensors at the bottom of the radiator, Im going to suggest they are for the aux fan.

      It's easy enough to look it up.

        Thanks guys. there is no dash anymore. I should post some updated pics with the new race set up in it.
        3 guages, One volts, one mechanical oil pressure and one mechanic temp
        2 idiot lights for oil press and high temp, three circuit breakers for the fan and for the ign and fuel system and a master on off switch and a push button for the starter.
        its pretty awsome looking
