Does anyone know where the tempurature sensor is which feeds the temp gauge on the dashboard...

Mine is just buggered up and just wanted to have a fiddle around with the sensor but am unsure where it is?

IIRC if the wire was to touch the block this would send it right to the top of the gauge yes?

It's for a a 4b4 taxi

Thanks.

 

by the dipstick,,, by the ecus ect sensor

 

front lhs on a 2wd head and i think near the dipstick on the 4x4 head

 

mark...its beside the blue sensor...below the inlet at the back of the head....

 

Anyone got a picture of one on an engine outside of the engine bay? On a stand or something

Just have no idea what they look like...and don't wanna fiddle with the wrong sensor

 

if you put your hand by the dipstick,, there is one sensor with one wire,, and one with two wires

you want the single wire one

 

as said underneath the inlet manifold by the dipstick

rite nightmare to change one if the sensors gon down

 

I'll go and have a little fiddle

back in 5

 

Can't seem to see it

Isn't the blue sensor is it?

 

nope the blue is for the ecu



on my (2wd head) its that brass thing just at the bottom of the left pulley

 

mark....its on the left of the blue sensor.....(you cant see it on this pic because its a 2wd head i guess...)

but to give you an idea...

 

Sorted it, Thanks lads

The connector had broken/worn off and the wire was just hanging there tocuhing the engine

So got a spare connector and connected it back and it's fine.

God i love this place for sorting out problems

 

Close but no cigar

Had to change mine a while back... lovely job

 

All done Mr Boardman
