PROCEDURE

1. INSTALL ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR

HINT:

Perform "Inspection After Repair" after replacing the engine coolant temperature sensor (See page (a) Apply a light coat of engine coolant to the O-ring of the engine coolant ).

(a) Apply a light coat of engine coolant to the O-ring of the engine coolant temperature sensor.

NOTICE:

  • When reusing the engine coolant temperature sensor, inspect the O-ring.
  • Make sure that the O-ring is not cracked or jammed when installing it on the rear water by-pass joint.
  • Replace with a new part if it is dropped or if it receives a strong impact.

(b) Install the engine coolant temperature sensor to the rear water by-pass joint with the clip.

(c) Connect the connector to the engine coolant temperature sensor.
