Hi All,

Can anyone tell me where the engine coolant temperature switch is located on a bfii xr6turbo

presuming this is whats causing my thermo fans to stop working randomly they working fine for maybe 1 or 2 months without fault and then suddenly they do not operate properly, I can hear them on low speed only but never goto high speed and yep the car heats up and begins to get hotter then normal

Help!!!

Daniel

Temp sensor is located on the rear of the head. Hidden down the back above the trans bellhousing.

The sensor feeds data to the pcm. The PCM switches the fan relay. The sensor also supplies the data for the temp gauge and pcm temp compensated parameters. Unless your seeing multiple faults unlikely it's the sensor. Faulty power /earth's to the fans or suspect fans or relay are more likely. Has the car been tuned?

The fans have 3 relays. I suspect at least 1 has issues.
