FBH Sensor.

I have a 75 cdt with FBH, the fbh fires up okay from my Telestart remote, but not automatically when the temp drops below 5 degrees. Where exactly is the sensor, is it easy to get at, and where can I buy another please?. Thanks, John.

Give trikey ( Andy ) a PM he got few new once . It's a front bumper off work and easy enough. If you look under the bottom grill ( next to the fog lamp ) it's bolted to the power steering cooler pipe .

There are two sensors side by side on the diesel, one is ambient air the other is for the FBH, Check the loom as they can get brittle and crack.
