Twiddled the three temp sensor connectors - no joy.

I'm charging the A/C, and the radiator fans run when the A/C is on, but NOT when it is off. Normally, sitting still and idling like this to charge the A/C, the radiator fan would kick in.

What if there's a big bubble in my radiator and the coolant doesn't even reach the sensor there? I haven't bled the system yet. That's next.

Still like to know what the VW 1301 output is so I can test the gauge and use the Bentley troubleshooting flowchart. --
