I am running a ZE one, the 2nd sensor if that is what you are referring to.

I am running it as that is what is on the motor. I wired it into the ECU, and that fixed that fan issue. However, last I checked I was still running a code for a CTS sensor..

wat

If you wired it right, you shouldn't be getting a code. After sorting mine, I checked codes, and all was clear. Granted it didn't work as advertised, but yeah...that's another story.

BTW, I think Mazda used the same coolant sensors for all their K motors.

Yea I think the coolant sensor is the same.

I will run codes again soon, the fans are working right now so I dont really care.

Hey, are they coming on at the right temperature? Noticed anything odd about their operation?

Seem to be yea, car hasn't overheated.. They seem to work fine as far as I am concerned.

I noticed your thread before about overheating.. You fix that?

Well, I sorted it by swapping in a '95 KL85 ECU, so single sensor, and now it works properly. My guess is my black fan sensor is borked. I barely use MSN...
