摘要

A temperature sensitive element (10) is connected to two cores (61,62) of a cable (60) by connecting wires (20) and the sub assembly is enclosed within a split cylindrical frame (31). The frame fits inside a probe body (40) part of which (43) is pressed on to the cable. A threaded nut (50) slides over the probe and buts against a probe collar (41) to make connection to a vehicle frame An Independent claim is also included for: An assembly method with stages of soldering connections, enclosure in split frame, pressing probe body on to cable and fitting to vehicle by threaded nut
