a problem everyone with an ERST seems to experience at some point, i personally think the problem lies somewhere in the realms of BOSCH KE JETRONIC IS A BIG PILE OF SOAPY WANK

the brown one wont have anything to do with it, only comes into play when cranking (thats if you have one of the few that will actually start with the cold start valve connected!!!!), and the yellow one, possibly, but VERY VERY unlikely.

Just so a resistance test, the resistance changes with temperature, very rare thing for these to go wrong.

you could look into your air temp sensor, although again unlikely?

if you can mate get fiesta/cosworth management and be done with it!!
