RE: Need help with 90 2.3 10V's run on fan sensor

Check the sensor itself (bad one),
I just had the same problem, it was a bad sensor (brand new! made in Italy),
maybe there is a bunch of bad ones circulating around....

Hey all,
My 90 ('90 2.3 10V FWD automatic) seems to have a problem with the run on
fan
sensor.  The run on fan is not coming on after shutdown.  I bought a new
sensor and it did not solve the problem.  Then I just connected the 2 wires
of
the sensor, and it comes on after every shut down for the usual 10 minutes
(or
so).

So, I can't figure what's wrong, it has to be the sensor since the run on
fan
works when I jump the 2 wires, but the new sensor doesn't seem to help....

Any thoughts?
