    My temperature sensor is playing some tricks on me. Sometimes it shows around 175 (needle points middle), then goes to 120, than back to 175 in few seconds interval. Probably I need a new sensor or the sensor wire is loose. I don't have the manual of this motor and just wondering where exactly is this temp. sensor located?

    Just replaced the sensor. The most difficult part of the job, was to disconnect the wire, without breaking it. After that 10 min. job......
