Bottom corner one is the water temp sender for the ECU, it tells the ECU if the car needs to cold start or not.

Icemark is correct. A common mod is to actually disconnect it so the engine doesn't rev so high when cold (with cold oil, and less oil pressure, etc).
You just modded your car by accident, lol.
Maybe you need to work around in the OMP area...
