Welcome to KF

You are supposed to unplug the sensor wires prior to removing/unscrewing the sensor! lol Did the wire just come unplugged or did the tang/wire on the sensor fall off due to rust etc?

I think i just might wire the fan to a switch and just use it when the motor starts to heat up and forget the sensor for now.
