Hi. the temp. guage shows overheating, both hoses are hot, and hot air blows inside. that leads me to believe the coolant temp sensor is bad??
problem is it is a one wire sensor, but replacement is a two wire sensor. Its located in the thermostat housing. how can i get a replacement and does that seem like my problem?
