This is a water temperature sensor that monitors the engine coolant temperature and sends this vital information to the engine control unit or gauge. Constructed with robust materials to withstand engine bay heat and vibration, it provides accurate readings unlike a faulty sensor that gives incorrect or no data. Operators may observe fluctuating or inaccurate temperature readings on the gauge, or trigger a check engine light.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
An initial sign of a failing water temperature sensor is an inaccurate reading on the temperature gauge, showing either too high, too low, or erratic fluctuations. If the sensor fails completely, the gauge may read cold constantly, or the engine warning light may illuminate, potentially leading to the engine running inefficiently or overheating unnoticed. Operating an engine with an incorrect temperature reading risks damage from overheating or poor performance.
Ensure the engine is completely cool before attempting to remove the old sensor to avoid burns. Use thread sealant specifically designed for high-temperature applications on the new sensor's threads.
Check the coolant level and condition, and verify the thermostat is functioning correctly when replacing the water temperature sensor.
