It's the AAT ambient air temp sensor, it controls the engine bay fan. If you disconnect it, the fan should operate.(ignition on)

thanks dave but its not connected to anything tho, i presume it goes where yours is just above the coolant tank

Do you mean you have the plug and switch dangling, or just the cable and plug?

if you look at the pics, it is the plug and the sensor.

It should be fitted into the metal bracket (as in David's photo) it is definately the AAT sensor, has the bracket gone missing?

no the bracket is still there i must of knocked it when i was tinkering round the engine bay. thanks guys
