The way I had installed the aftermarket temp sensor was bugging me, so
I removed it and reconnected my aftermarket gauge to the Jetta temp
sensor. It now reads slightly higher. Since I have an '85 cluster, and
possibly the low coolant control module, thought I might kill two
birds and by swapping in those parts. But....

Can anyone tell me what white "number" is on the low coolant warning
module for the 1.9 WBX?

Googling PN's on the ones I have and comparing the pin numbers to
Bentley shows I likely I don't have it. But just in case...

Neil.
