The 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix SE has a normal operating temperature due to the engine. This is usually around 230 degrees.
Approx. 210
200-215
Like 210 F
Because it is a Pontiac. Sorry, man.
195 degrees I believe, but you can check your owners manual or one on Pontiac's website. The normal operating temperature with a stock thermostat is one line past the 1/4 mark. If you idle in traffic for long periods it can creep up a couple of lines but will/should come back down when you start moving. Hope this helps. "G"
Normal temp ranges are from 180 to 192 degrees F. Low temps can indicate an open thermostat, high temps can ruin an engine.
195 degrees
Check the temperature sensor
On a 1996 Pontiac Grand Prix, the temperature sensor for the radiator cooling fans is typically located near the engine coolant outlet or in the engine block, often near the thermostat housing. This sensor monitors the engine temperature and signals the cooling fans to activate when the temperature reaches a certain threshold. It's important to consult the vehicle's service manual for the exact location and specifications, as there can be variations depending on the engine type.
Mine runs around 200-220...
I not sure what the normal temp is but I had a 94 grand am and it ran around 160 most of the time.
