Hi everyone,
My car is golf 3 tdi 1996.
I'm experiencing a possible failure of the coolant temp sensor; a sudden unintended acceleration at firing the engine when it's hot. With the the coolant temp plug unplugged the car starts normal and doesn't accelerate by itself. So before attempting to replace the sensor, I want to go through the wiring check and the sensor itself.
Could you plz guide me on how to check the wiring and the sensor?
Thanks
