where is the temp sensor located.i need to change mine bad

 

right side of the engine block, pretty sure of it{ passanger side }

 

Right side of the block should be the fan switch one wire, left side should be for the guage one wire spade conn the two wire in the intake by the t'stat is for the ECM

 

k which is it.i got 1 person sayin passenger n driver.i foound 1 on the driver side wit 1 black wire coming out of it and its got a gold thing holden the wire on.i tryed pullin on it but couldnt get it off.help

 

ok this is what they are

1: Drivers (LH) side head there is a sensor for the (in cab) Temp guage.
2: Passenger (RH) side there is a temp sensor to activate the fan (Dual fans only i think).
3: Intake there is a sensor for the ECM.

I thought only the dual fans had a passenger (RH) side senser to turn the secondary fan on coz the main fan is controled by the ECM.

If im wrong someone will corect me, Hope it helps.

 

Your Wrong... There is still a temp sensor on the Pass side that controls the main fan even if you only have one.

 

where is that sensor located? i know on the pass side but where at?

 

In the passenger side head not shure where coz mine don't have one.

 

Rt head between #4 and #6 cylinder.

there is a picture of the fan switch in this thread

k is the driver side 1 have 1 black wire???? and is there a sertain way to take the wire off casue i tryed ppullin it off n would come off

 

yeah it slids off not pulls. put it with the wire end down, and pull down it will eventually slide off

 

it sticks out horizntal tho.... how do i pull down w/o bendin it

 

pull the connector the same direction the wire is going and it will slide off. keep it parallel to the block and you shouldn't damage anything.

 

is the medal thing jst a cap like a protection thing cause i still cant get it off.and is it located by the fire wall on the driver side like attached to the header area?? casue that were i see it

 

please

 

nah the drivers side temp sensor is closer to the front of the engine under the exhaust manifold.
It looks like a spade connector.

 

i need to kno were the temp sensor wit the guage goes.i forgot to right the guage part.is it in the same spot or pass side

 

wait... is youre car RHD or LHD?

If LHD it is in the drivers side head near the front of the engine.

If RHD it is in the passenger side head near the front of the engine.

 

I have a L69 HO (original owner Too!) It has the sgl fan setup with the temp senser in the passenger side head.

 

mine was on the intake manifold by the thermostat housing

 

well when i got my car my setup was:

Fan Temp Switch was in Intake next to T/Stat housing.
In cab temp guage sensor was in LHS head (Close to the front of the engine)
and that is it. No ECM and a hacked up wiring loom.

I now have:
Fan Temp switch in same location with a new aftermarket temp guage sensor right next to it in the Intake, the OEM guage sensor is still in the LHS head but it is only as a guide since i have not put the aftermarket temp guage in the cab yet (hookd up under the hood next to the battery).
The aftermarket one was only installed to get a idear of how close the OEM guage was and to tell me at what temp my fans were coming on.

 

did u have to feel for it? like u couldnt see it only feel it under by the header area.i felt it and the end of what im hopin is the sensor...but the end was round.i have this green wire hangin and at the end where it should clip it has a speaker like clip.

 

YES!!!! thats it, the spade conector (green wire) slides over the round end.

If you still have aircon then Yeah it will be almost imposible to see.

 

nice im gana try it today
----------
but how is it supoosed to go on the round end?????its made to fit in a sqaure peice not round.,,

 

?????
