Need help please car so close to running

[bigboostedmk3]

I havent been on the site for a while because I have been working on the car for the last few months and now that it is so close I have run into a problem. After we got the car running we noticed it had a tiny antifreeze leak around one of the sensors on the thermostat housing. To correct it I took my 15/16 wrench and went to tighten it and it snapped clean off. It is a sensor or switch pointing up with a brown 2 wire plug in and you have to use a 15/16 wrench to tighten it. If anyone can tell me exactly what the name of it is and what it is either a sensor or switch that would be great. Thanks so much

Bobby

CSI switch.. If you pull the T-stat cover, you may be able to Vise-grip the sucker out from the inside,,, or drill it out. Either way it won't be fun. Getting a new switch shouldn't be too bad though.
