Default 1991 944S2 mystery sensor under intake manifold

Check it out... what the heck is this thing? Anyone know what it is and what its part number is? I've checked PET and the Workshop Manuals and can't find any references to this thing. I think it's a 1991 exclusive.

My 89 S2 intake has that connection as well. Temp sensor maybe?

Interesting... I kinda thought that's what it is but the connecting wires aren't part of the DME harness. Very strange... but then, so is Porsche.

Thumbs up Mystery solved...

It's a temp sensor... measures engine air temp and activates the fans if the engine air gets too warm, regardless of coolant temp... which explains why it's connection isn't tied into the DME harness but the cooling fan harness.
