@siteunseen guys problem solved. I tracked the green wires for the thermotime connector and it was hooked in the temp sensor!!!

Car started beautifully. Appreciate all the responses.

    One final thing on this topic: my idle RPM in D mode are around 900 and in P (parking) they are a bit higher about 1200. Is P mode idle OK or high?

    Manual says to check idle in D mode and it is within range.

    We did change the thermal coupler on the fan as well. Temp was climbing at idle a bit but now it is stable a little below 1/2.

    I am able to drop the RPM in P to 1K with closing the idle screw. System looks really good at the moment. Plan to continue driving on HW for the next week or so.

    I think i need new suspension now (creating new post)!!!
