It is a 2-pin one that you need, they have supplied the wrong part.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

That doesn't actually mean anything though. I have a light blue, 1 pinned sensor that came from Peugeot. It's the correct part number and works fine. ________________________________________ Rich |

You've got the 1-pin one as well Rich?How does that work, it's the incorrect one for the '6', we need the 2-pin variety. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

It's the part that Peugeot sell. I just assumed it was a change by the manufacturer and that it wouldn't make a difference, and it hasn't.I think all it does is do away with the wired -ve on the loom and use the engine body instead. ________________________________________ Rich |

 It does seem strange that they hadn't thought of earthing through the body to start with, after all the thing screws into the engine which is already an Earth... Even stranger is the fact that the OP has now apparantly managed to get the "correct" part out of Pug, which must mean that the part you bought Rich was indeed incorrect (even though it works) and that the original part hasn't been superceded...how odd. Pete - Let us know what exactly it is you collect tomorrow, would be interested to know if it's EXACTLY the same as the old one.

Well,as I said a few posts up the two wire sensor is required if you have a stop light and temp gauge Tried earthing them out on mine earlier to confirm  Earth out the white wire and the stop light illuminates,earth out the orange wire and gauge goes right round The Xsara VTS is fitted with a single connection sensor,and a single wire plug going onto it,cause they have no stop light Rich E wrote: Well as I say, it's the correct part number, and the bag was sealed...and it works fine... Your stop light cannot be working on the coolant system then?  Presuming you have got two connections on the plug going to sensor ________________________________________ Red GTB1756 powered Fabia VRS daily driver,LBSC Gti6 eater........Mac1 ZR R1 kit car build in progress. |
