Does anyone know where to get a new plug (126 540 30 81) for the 4 pin coolant sensor (008 542 32 17, listed as water temp. sensor)? If not, is it possible to break it open in a way that it is still usable? The wiring is degrading all the way to the plug.
You need to connect a wire to the 2 sockets you pulled off the pins, not the pins themselves. The sensor is just a switch. So by jumping the wires with a short piece of wire you are removing the switch. Does that make sense? You are talking about the one just behind the upper radiator hose, correct?
