Martin, I think you're wrong on this one. My '85 has 3 factory wires going
to the radiator thermoswitch. Maybe only the cars w/ AC got this, but there
are definitely 3 wires to the thermoswitch. I can send a photo if you'd
like.

Andrew,

Nope, only the two pins.
4kq used all three.
However because of part commonality, the two pin sensor was superseeded to 
a three pin.

Hope this helps.
