I have heard that the water temp sender if prone to bad/broken connections.

So may just be a simple bad wire problem?

Check the multi plug connection that goes into the underside of the Air filter box (the one at the front of tha car, the connection is on the passenger side)

yeah its turning over and every now an again it sounds like it just about gonna spring in to life but it does'nt just quite get there frown

Took the water temp connecter off today and the screen switched from NO CONTROL to OK an fans come on, but when i connect it again it goes back to NO CONTROL. Gonna get a new sensor tomorrow, does anybody think this could cause the car not to start?? Cheers Mike
