I'd never seen such an arrangement for the temp sensor in an UM-2.
I'll guess this is kind of "hack", -in order to avoid open the whole printer in order to change the PT-100 temp sensor.
You have to order a new original PT-100 sensor for the UM-2, this as the sensor come as a complete unit with wiring directly connected to the sensor and a connector in the other end -to be installed into the main PCB (located under the printer).
Did you managed to remove the old PT-100 capsule.
(PS., there is a kind of metal filter seen on one of the cooling fan, never seen this as well -would not this reduce the airflow for cooling the "printing object"?)
Anyway, good luck in changing the temperature sensor..
Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.
S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
(Sorry, was out of office when this released)
This update is for...
All UltiMaker S series
New features
Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.

Hi Torgier
Thanks. I was assuming I would have to order the whole part 😞
This is one of the first UM2s. I bought it not long after release date.
I haven't tried removing the PT100 yet.
The fans were fine. Intact, until I had a major blockage which caused this damage, this printer has been brilliant for years!
thanks for your help
