    Just resurrecting an old thread as a search revealed somebody else having had similar troubles to myself.

    Just wondering whether there was an outcome of the operation of the surface mount temperature "switch"? My hope is it works like a normally open, then reaches its preset temp and closes to make the lamp on the dash light up. If it is a varistor, then I'll have some more work to do and that goes against my laziness grain........

    Cheers

    Its probably no help but in a RRC and probably D1 it is a simple on /off.
    Mine came on after a 70CM water crossing, so I pulled the wires ( after burning my arm reaching down between the rad and motor to dry the terminals.)
    This didn't fix it, so I left the wires pulled. I tested it again once home and Lo and behold no resistance.
    Now does anyone know if the RRC switch ( which is in the cooler line behind the LH side of the Rad) is dry or wet.
    Seeing it is working OK now I will leave sleeping dogs, but you never know.

    Reviving Old Thread

    Guys, I have fitted the RRC oil cooler to my D2A, and have the same problem. My Trans oil temp light is on. I know its an external temp sender, and have no issues with removing/replacing it....but it should work fine just connecting it straight into the existing harness, shouldnt it? If so, then I probably have a faulty sender and will replace it with a new one.

    Thanks in advance.
