I don't believe there is a breaker for the sensor if we are talking about the same one that screws into the top of the radiator. Most likely the sensor is bad

On the 02 rad the thermal fan switch screws into the bottom corner of the rad. The Polaris stock Part # is 4010161.

If Your dealer's prices are crazy, these thermal sensors from a auto parts store will work, you just have to spice your old sensor's wire plug in connection on the end.

Napa FS147
Wells SW526
Blue Streak TS-127.

or any sensor for a 84-88 Nissan Maxama or 86-89 Nissan Stanza will work.

The Predator use a Polaris Part #4010808 http://www.cyclepartswarehouse.com/f...2004&fveh=5648 while the 02 Scrambler is Part #4010161 so its different in some way.
