This is one of those times having access to telco test equipment would be great. If you can get your hands on a tone generator and probe set, you could send a tone signal down the FI harness pin that corresponds to the temp sensor, and trace it out with the probe to where it ends up. Just an idea. Someone probably has a simpler solution.
