I cannot verify working condition of sensor, but PO said it worked fine. I have cut the wire but left about a foot for easy connecting. Lat one I saw on the "bay" went for around 150 for the set, I am asking $100 or best offer plus shipping

You should be able to test the resistance to tell if it's good, it's just a thermal resistor.

Ok, I must admit at this point that I am an idiot with that stuff. I can get my hands on the tester, can anyone give me a how to on testing this thing?

Take a Volt-Ohm meter (VOM) and set the selector to measure ohms. Take the 2 leads and touch one lead to the body of the sensor and the other to the male spade terminal. Easier to just see pix than write explanation.

Fantastic! Thank you. I will be digging out my multi. (I have one, just never learned how to use it)

As a thermister there should be chart to verify temp v. resistance?

I looked through the workshop manual for specs on temp vs resistance and couldn't find anything. Was even looking for resistance at ambient temp.
