I have a remote shutoff switch mounted in the back of the liner and the operating plunger is mounted just below the pushbar. My comments were about some reliable low tech way to see if your rear eng

You might want to look at thermisters, especially NTC (negitave temperature coefficient) type. The resistance goes down as temp goes up so a loose connection doesn't look like a fire. See link below

Gee whiz Glen, you think of everything. I guess we would have to run it outside the car and bring it up to the base of the windshield. Just kidding of course. I get nervous about guys trying to make
