Ford Mondeo Estate Ghia Facelift 2004 - Mondeo sensor, any ideas what it is please ? - Englishbullterrier

Just taking off the bumper to make a small repair. On removing the offside foglight, a 2 wire sensor became unclipped and dropped into view. Any ideas what it might be ?

Many thanks in advance..............ebt

PS, the protusion on the left is solid, ie, it does not push in like a button or microswitch.

Yes, thanks elekie, I thought it might be you that would respond. I thought it may be tfhat, after all, not a lot you can sense with 2 wires unless in an oil or waterway etc.

On another point, whilst running satnav power and audio leads etc, I remove the drivers side under dash panel. Not removeable unless you unclip another sensor (about 18mm, sausage shaped) which actually clips into the panel.

Internal temp sensor do you think ? About 3 or 4 leads this time.

Have a good one and thanks.............ebt
