I thought I'd come and see you but if you want to head North that's fine by me.

As for the temperature sensor

Do you have the four or two pin version?

Checking the four pin is easy as you measure the resistance diagonally across the pins - if the measurements are different from corner to corner then you've got a duff one.

If I remember correctly there was a resistance limit / value mentioned in the FSM somewhere for the temp sensor at a particular temperature. It might have been in the electrical components section...
