i just put the motor back into my s2 and now when i turn the ignition on the water temp meter instantly goes way above the red mark.
everething else works fine, and the fan cut's in normal

The sensor is right above the exhaust manifold in the cylinder head near the thermostate housing. I think the cable is cracked and gets a short-circuit somwhere

The fan is independant for the gauge (meter)
what is happening, is that for some reason the wire between the gauge and sender (sensor) is earthing. It is unlikely to be the sender itself, more a problem with the connection along the way.

Too many posts.. I need a life!!
i had the same fault a couple of months ago. it turned out that the contact inside the rubber that connects to the head had gone rusty. my temp gauge would only work when it wanted to. it should be an easy fix though matey.
