it switches on the choke warning light, once the engine reaches a certain temperature, if the choke is still pulled out.

As said above, it's for the choke light. Called the Otter Switch and apparently prone to failure.

If it's a simple temperature controlled switch, it may not give any reading until it closes when the engine is hot.
