I have D-Jet thermo-time switches. the one you show has a switching temp of -12C to -18C..

Havng trouble with the cold start valve not working?? LOL!

I have several 311 906 161C which are close at -6 to -14C.

Mmmm now I know why I couldn't get the one in my stash to switch on when I tested it, didn't get it cold enough!

Thanks guys. Found a couple of switches in newcastle. Much appreciated scott. Even though the switches are for cold temps, ecu is not happy with an open circuit if it's not there or has failed. All working well and purring like a kitten.
