While replacing some old air intake boots I found two different intake temperature sensors. One of them had the wires cut while the other seemed to be properly connected. I know the car was in a front end collison at some point and wondering if the cut one is from replacement intake box? Can anyone tell me 1) is there only disposed to be one temp sensor? 2) which is the correct one?
Also, my OBC temp does work.
Thanks.

On the M70 of my E32 750
air intake temp. sensors are inside the MAF , Nr. 1 shown here http://bmwe32.masscom.net/sean750/MA...leshooting.htm
and 2 at the back of the intake as shown here, 1 each side http://bmwe32.masscom.net/sean750/sp...enumIntake.jpg
then there are 3 coolant temp sensors on the back of the engine
On my 750 M70 there are from right side to center
ECT = engine coolant temperature sensor on M70 engine is at the right rear of engine in coolant cross pipe, 3-pins
That goes to the both DME, brown/red wire and ground to DME 1, brown/red/yellow wire and ground to DME 2.
Testing data are in the Bentley repair Manual page 130-35
left one >>temperature gauge sender
right one>> engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor (DME)
middle one>>>EML coolant temperature sensor
Location: in coolant crosspipe at rear of engine under the coolant expansion tank.
The open circuit supply to the sensor is at a 5.0 volt reference level and this voltage reduces to a value that depends upon the resistance of the CTS resistance. Normal operating temperature is usually from 80° to 100° C.
The ECU uses the CTS signal as a main correction factor when calculating ignition timing and injection duration.

1 is 5 Kohm
you can double check that in the Bentley repair Manual page 130-35, here are the ohms at different temperatures http://www.e32-schrauber.de/bmw/s-tempsensor.htm
use realoem.com, search for the part numbers and then google search with it for data

Shogun tricks and tips for the E32 series are HERE!
Only one on my 850. It has a yellow connector, located under driver side headlight assy and plugs into side of the air channel that cools the brakes.
Here are pics of the two sensors. The yellow one is the same one BMSman was describing. So what's the other one?

See the answers in the post I made about the very same sensors a couple of days ago as to where they go: https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/s...essure-sensors
There are 2 air temp sensors - 1 in each brake cooling duct. The one on the drivers side (left) is similar to the ones in the rear of each intake runner on the M70. The other one on the passenger side (right) is actually a "button". Both are mounted to the underside of each respective duct.

...the price of cool ain't cheap!
I am going to go look for mine tonight. Car has been running rough since the temperature dropped and this would I assume affect it if missing or damaged.
I am missing my left brake duct, it was gone when I bought the car. Thanks for the Pictures
My Entire Duct is missing this picture was taken from the Driver Side Wheel Well. Car is a 1991 850. I found the sensor PN for the 94+ but could not find one for the 1991 on Real OEM, I did not see any buttons or the Yellow electrical Connector either. My right duct is intact, I am going on the assumption everything there is intact.
Looking for the PN for the sensor
