The grounds are clean and are attached to bare metal,  I tested the  pins
in the connector which attaches to the ECU with a VOM and the readings were
as specified in Bentley.  The VOM has a temperature probe so I was
reasonably sure of the coolant temperature.

Thanks, Rico

Checking  the wiring is simple enough. Just unplug the connector from  the

Then with you ohm meter you change check the wiring and the  connection to
the
temp 2 sensor. Have you already cleaned up the grounds  on the left side
of the engine compartment? That bunch of ring connectors  grounds quite a
bit
and should be kept pretty clean.
