I found that my outlander temperature light came on and in my discovery of why, I found that the radiator temperature sensor would not enable the fan.
In my search I found that the engine temperature sensor would show weird resistance from about 400 ohms to zero depending on how hot the motor got.

I purchased this for the radiator:
HEAT SENSOR SWITCH FOR BOMBARDIER CAN AM 709200089 709200003 715900095

I got a new engine sensor from eBay:
CAN AM OEM COOLANT TEMP SWITCH 05-08 OUTLANDER 420897938

I have two questions

1. Since I put the radiator sensor in, and drove the outy until the temperature switched the fan on, I turned off the engine and found that the fan would run for several minutes. I did test the new sensor and it would turn on around 200F. Is this normal for the fan to run so long..

2. The temperature warning light no longer comes on so i tested the engine temperature in boiling water to 220 F and it would not switch.
What temperature does the engine have to be to switch the sensor on and is it variable resistance or closed circuit?
