It is in the drivers side head, between the first 2 spark plugs in the front of the cylinder head.
Thetemp sensor with one wire operates the temp gauge on the dash and is usually found in the cylinderhead. The temp sensor with two wires sends its signalto the engine control module for several operations and is usually found near to the thermostat.
the oil pressure sensor, for a dash with idiot lights (no gauge), is located on the top of the engine at the back behind the distributor virtically screwed in. The oil guage sensor, for a dash with an oil gauge, is located above the oil filter on the drivers side of the engine screwed in horizontally.
That is the coolant sensor. Not the one for the temperature gauge in the dash.
The coolant fan sensor is the same as the sensor that shows the coolant temperature on the dash gauge. It is located on the intake manifold.
temperature gauge not working can be caused by a bad temp sensor in engine, a bad gauge in dash, or a bad fuse
The guage on the dash uses the ONE wire sensor... This is located in the block near the drivers side. Eric First check to see if you have coolant in the radiator. If there is no coolant you will not get any reading from the temperature sensor. If there is coolant then change the temperature sensor.
It will be a oil pressure sensor
That would be the engine coolant temp sensor for the dash gauge only. The sensor near the thermostat housing is the engine temp sensor for the ECM.
Either the sensor is broken or Your gaug on the dash is not working.
It helps the computer to judge how much fuel to allow in to the engine, it can also run the gauge on the dash
Where the top hose of the radiator goes is called the water outlet pipe. The sensor for the coolant temperature is in this pipe. There are 2 sensors. One goes to the gauge on the dash and the other goes to the computer. Not sure which is which, but if you unplug the one that goes to your dash the temperature gauge will peg.
THE temp sending unit 4 the inside gauge usally has 1 wire & the sending unit 4 the Computer has 2 wires.
