Sorry, I wasn't sure if you'd seen the earlier post. If the temperature sensor of the TMAP is not used at all, then I suppose you could tap into it without causing any other issues...

EDIT: If I'm reading the Bosch spec sheet properly, it's a thermistor and not a thermocouple. I think that actually makes it easier to deal with for making a fan controller than a thermocouple.
