What engine code do you have then?

Heres where the sensor goes on an 8v ABK, not sure what its for, i'll have a look on ETKA for you. (Circled in red)

It is a temperature sensor for the fan run on. Erath the wire within a few minutes of the ignition having been on (ignition off) and the fan should run.
