Fired up the FBH today
Thought I'd give the FBH a run today before winter arrives...took a couple of attempts but got there in the end

Is this a crazy idea, but if i put the external temperature probe 'on ice' would this make it fire?

My FBH has never worked, the old td4 freeby would come on at all sorts of temps. Never smoked unless purging and that kicked out some smoke... always chose a time when there was a crowd so people thought it was on fire..
Is there a way of getting it to fire up again?In loving memory of FA54WSK.
Rest well old friend, your work is done.

The sensor? Yeah remove the front bumper bit, the top bit for the headlight removal and in the middle feel below. It's attached to the front bumper and I just aimed some freeze spray onto it.
