Guys, Anyone able to help on this one, As soon as I start the car the FAN kicks in immediately, it's running low then high then low again and so on. Has anyone any solutions as I have not had as many problems with any of my other cars and I'm starting to get depressed with it. :(

Temp sensor. Fan will kick in if ecu is not getting signal from temp sensor. Check connector, clean any corrosion..etc Replace sensor if nessasary.

I think i'm gonna have to replace the sensor plug as its been cleaned before. Thanks mate. Oh, do i have to replace it with the same connector or will any do ?

I just looked at the connectors and there is a pin missing out of the red socket thats on the pipe that the yellow connector plugs into. Are these engine specific or could i pick one up at an auto factors?

got mine at auto factors, mine was doin same plus it really messes with the fueling iff ecu thinks engine is cold all the time (hunting on idle) was a issue when mine went bad, think i paid £13 and solved-period :)

Temp sensor and harness is one of those rare things that isn't too much from your local Nissan Dealer.

Wouldn't recommend not buying a nissan part as it is a crucial bit of kit, about 20-25ish from Nissan.

Thanks guys, The frigging car stalled on a bridge in the middle of town on the way to the motor factors :headvswal blocked the road for 10 mins, luckily i found a freeze bag tie in the storage compartment which i stripped to the wire and inserted it into the connector. I may go to Nissan tomorrow but I'm worried that they won't entertain me as it's an import :headvswal

Anyone know the part number for the temp sensor? I need a new one too

Mine's a UK TT manual

> Anyone know the part number for the temp sensor? I need a new one too

 

22630-51E02, 22630-51E00, 22630-51E10 or 22630-V5010

any of those will work.

 

the same temp sensor is used on about every Nissan with petrol engine from '90 onward.
