How can I disconnect the GPU heatsink thermal sensor?

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

Hi there,

my old (yet replaced) MBP has a problem with its GPU heatsink sensor: it reports more than 40°C higher temperatures than the GPU itself. Fans rev up on boot, SMCFanControl can take care of that, but when the GPU heatsink reaches 85° the MBP shuts off instantly.

I want to change or disconnect this sensor. But where is it and is there a spare part?

Thanks

Matthias
