Isn't it dangerous that the thermal sensors are not working? I mean, if the thermal sensors are those for the hard disk, the battery, or the cpu, the laptop will have no way of knowing about overheating, and if it occurs, the user will end up with fried hardware (or, worse, fire -overheating battery is bad for health ;) -)... Of course, I do not have a real understanding of this issue and I am guessing what might happen.
