The temperature switch on a Golf 3 engine is typically located near the thermostat housing. It is usually positioned on the cylinder head or engine block, depending on the specific engine variant. This switch monitors the engine coolant temperature and sends signals to the engine management system for optimal performance. Always refer to the vehicle's service manual for precise location details.

In a VW Golf MK3, the temperature sensor is typically located on the engine block, near the thermostat housing. It is usually positioned on the cylinder head or near the coolant outlet, depending on the specific engine variant.

A faulty thermostatic switch would prevent the fan switching on when the engine is hot. (Located in the side of the radiator on my 1991 golf)
Change the flasher first.
In the thermostat housing
The thermostatic switch is located near the top right hand side of the radiator (if your facing car).
It's located on the top of the gearbox -- has 2 wires going to it.
It is located in the engine block on the front of the motor. Its to the right of the oil sender and under the forward motor mount.
