R1 Temp Sender Wiring

Just wondered if anyone can shed any light on the wiring for the temp sender on a 99 R1, as in the wiringdiagram ive got a green/red wire and a black/blue wire, yet the temp sender is a single post connection. So what are the two wires for?

Cheers

Don't bother, the gauges will only tell you the temp is high or low. I fitted a new sender in the hoses and a standard temp gauge.

Im not sure thats quite right because if i disconnect the green red and then reconnect it, i get a 2 or 3 digit temp reading, an then it switches to hi or lo.

Hi, i am sure the green/red goes to the sender connection and the black/blue goes to the earth under the sender on the radiator. I also put a link from the radiator earth direct to the chassis earth as I was getting weird readings. I also had issue with Hi temp showing early until I changed the R1 clocks from Deg F to Deg C for some reason.

Hi, if you open the clocks and on the circuit board there will be 2 pads bridged. If you de-solder them and bridge the one next to it, it changes the clock spec. The options are:
J12 open J13 close : UK spec MPH/KMH speedo, Miles ODO & trip, Deg C temp
J12 close J13 open : USA Spec MPH/KMH speedo, Miles ODO & trip, Deg F temp
J12 open J13 open: Europe spec KMH speedo, KM ODO & trip Deg C temp

Hope this helps,

Steven.

This temp info is also handy: Rescued attachment R1ClockH20Temp.jpg

The temp sensor has a single post on it but the screw thread is an earth. You need a solder ring earth connection to go between the sensor and the radiator to make the earth.
