Not 100% but I'm sure I was told one of the Cossie fan switches came in at a lower temp than the RST's and was a direct fit. Think it was the 4x4 but like I said not 100%

if u look at the thermostat hsing its the big blue plug ..pull the plug off get a big spanner on and take it off ..put some sealing ptfe tape around the new sensor plug..it takes about 10mins to do ..the fans will come in alot earlyer and theres no need for a manul over ride switch...

Prob better to go to ford to get this part

Undo fan plug on sensor on the thermostat housing chunky spanner to whip the old one off. Screw new sensor in and nip up reconnect wiring plug. Even our Keith could do it
