What's happened to the wire connected to the little sensor on the forward corner off-side of the rocker cover next the cam belt cover?

 

Has it come loose?

My car was doing this when I first got it. Its was the sensor on the front left of the rocker cover, its plastic sleeve was missing and the braded fuel line was touching it making the fan come on.

 

Hope that helps :roll:

Mines a 1.8 :D If your sender is missing then the wire to it might be earthing somewhere. Mine goes from the sender over towards the back of the airbox.
