I'm still trying to get AW to send me emails when someone replies.  It's 
probably user error.

FLAPS?  F L Auto Parts Store.....?

Most radiator fan temp switches (that I've seen) have been near the 
upper radiator hose, not the lower.

I noticed an extra wiring plug when I was disconnecting the headlight 
wipers.  Very close-by was a sensor on the radiator (under the lower 
hose).  The two mated.

I found the sensor on ETKA.  077 919 501 temperature sender 120C 2 pin 
black ;  rad fan temp switch?
