On EFI cars one is for the gauge the other is for the ECU.
On carby cars one is for the gauge the other is a pollution control item.

Do you have extractors on yours? If so then the pollution stuff is doing nothing

Vitaras have a temp sender to shut down the aircon pump, and run its fan only, if motor overheats.
It looks the same as a gauge type, but operates differently.
Unsure if carbed Vits have them.

I pulled mine, used it for a 2nd guage.
Wired original override into a switch.

They sender closer to the firewall is the water temp sensor. The one closer to the radiator is associated with the air conditioner.
I recently-and wrongly-replaced the a/c sender with a water temp sender and found that as soon as I started the car the thermatic fan that cools the a/c condenser came on. :(
I don't know if you can do what you want to do.

I put a proper temp sender in its place, for my 2nd gauge.
Then I ran the hi temp cut out wire thru an earth switch.
I just throw switch when I want extra radiator cooling without ac.
Down side being if it overheats it wont don't it automatically, I have to do it.
