I am not really pituring it right now but the only thing I can think of that is a one wire sensor on the thermostat housing is the "Coolant Level Sensor" would be my guess without seeing a pic.

THE SENSOR ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING IS THE THERMOSWITCH THAT TURNS THE FANS ON AT A PRESET TEMP. CHANGE IT TO A MIATA SENSOR IT KICKS THE FANS ON AT A LOWER TEMP. REALLY HELPS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC.

and... there is a temp sensor on the back side od the T-stat housing for the ECU. This is the one the Power FC displays the coolant temp from.
The temp sensor for the dash gauge is on the drivers (US model) side of the rear end housing.
