Anyone done a O deg/ 100 deg resistance test on the coolant temp sensor (ECU not gauge)? Don't suppose you have the resistances do you (and for some mid point if poss)?

That's a point, I do recall something. Cheers.

Suspect there isn't one apart from basic config... just trying to cover all bases.

I cheated, bought a new Lucas one, plugged in, and the Emerald's reading it fine . . RPi do the decent lucas ones with the brass bolt and inse sensor rather than the cheapy plastic over sleeved ones. .

Car now up and running, ready for Emerald on Tuesday . . Would have been a bit nicer though if the inactivty of the last few months hadn't resulted in the clutch pedal going to the floor on yesterday afternoon, as having a clutch that fully functions always helps on the rolling road wink At least it ws yesterday and not Tuesday morning on the way there . .

Not bad after the master cylinder gave up as well only a couple of weeks ago !
