That sensor is necessary for proper engine operation. Leave it plugged in, or as the other poster said, replace it and see if that changes anything.

+2 your radiator fan wont turn on if you dont have that sensor in. the sensor also helps with fuel. on start up the engine will be cold so the ecu will send extra fuel to the engine until the sensor tells it that its at operating temp.

When I did an after market temp sensor for my coolant gauge, I removed this one and on the first drive it drove like crap. so I put it back in and it was fine. I dont really know whats happening to yours.
 
it might be broken or damage cause the fans are not working automaticly , when i start the car the fans starts in 5 seg and never go off, soo im a bit confused here , and the car is stalling a bit since the fan are always on
