Bridging the two connectors will cause both fans to come, the reason why i know is because i have a switch wired in on my car so that on the cooling down lap on a trackday i can switch the fans on.

Radiator fan switch (N/S bottom of rad) would be my first port of call. They are ~ £10 from motor factors.

Screwed into the rad, basically a temp sensor?
Yep - two wires IIRC.

I was under the impression that the temp sensors/rad switch failed safe. When my rad switch failed the fan kicked in permanently.

I'll remember that next time you need a sensor
You should count yourself lucky that your car has a piece of the future legend in it!!
