r1 thermostat wiring
I have a 5pw R1 and have accidently broken one of the wires that goes into the connector that plugs into the underside of the thermostat housing 
I am using the RX1N clocks so am getting my temperature feed from a seperate source so was wondering if the broken wire will have any impact on the
engine or ECU ?
I am hoping that I do not need to repair the wire as it snapped right at the entrance to the housing so not sure if I will be able to fix it

Yes it will have an effect. The ECU enrichens the mixture when the engine is cold.
From the service manual:
'Coolant temperature sensor
The signals from the coolant temperature sensor are used primarily for making fuel volume compen-
sations during starting and warm-up.'
I think you'll need to fix it.
