JBreezy sent me my old sensor back, but it would not clip in due to a different clip. The Marauder one has a center lower slide in, the clip I had, had the slide to the lower right...as did other panthers in the junkyard.

Thanks to a 2000 Mustang in the muddy junkyard, I got a clip that fits and for the first time in months the ac compresser kicked on!

Finally, its ready for road havoc!!!

There is a little bit more to it than that Jim.

Believe it or not I actually did research on this. Turns out when the sensor is bad (or the wrong one in my case) it will kill the A/C, retune the car to run slower and the fan will constantly be on upon operation... thinking the car is overheating.

When the A/C kicked on, it was apparent that the sensor was sending the correct signal to the computer. Tomorrow will be the biggest test by seeing if it starts like it should when it's cold.

I hate it say it, but thanks to Zack for telling me the tune had nothing to do with my issue. I was sure it was COT related, but his assurance definitely played a factor in this repair... if you wanna call it a repair.

If I didn't touch it, it would have been fine. As long as I am the owner there will be "repairs." Then again, as long as I am the owner, it will be driven. ;)

Not today. The brake lights went out again.

Like anything, you walk away from it sonetimes and never make a decision when angry.
