hi hopefully a quick and simple question, does anyone know where the coolant temp sensor is on a '96 2.0l 8v renault megane? i'm guessing it's either the 3 pin green sensor or 2 pin white sensor in the thermostat housing but it would be great if someone could definitely confirm which it is.

also i assume it will be the coolant temp sensor that provides the reading to the temperature gauge on the dash?

cheers
chris

I'd expect the white one, with pink and white cables, to be the sensor for the engine management.

The 3-pin should be the temp gauge [green] and the over-temp warning buzzer [pink] and an earth [brown?]
