A code 4 is the ECU temp sender. It's tucked underneath the inlet manifold, just above the..... starter.

You can just reach it with yor fingers tryto wiggle the cable. It might just be a bad connection, Or it could have desintegrated like mine did.

A replacement is about £13 from your local anjamsingh car shop

Problem is, removed & replaced starter,(7 BL**DING HOURS) changed contacts all OK, apart from check light is now on and runs like a bag of s**t. code is no 4 temp sender. I take it this NOT the sender in the stat housing? will report back tomoz. Lucky I have my son's Surf to rob part from to try 'em out b4 buying any parts!!!

Thank for the info Gman

Right, now defrosted enough to type,

Disconnected the temp sensor under inlet manifold, no differance,
reconnect, still no differance, did same to other car no change. totally
lost now!! Looking like a garage job that I can't afford right now, bugger it
time for a few cans and a think. cheers
