I've tried finding out how to change an electronic coolant temperature sensor on a 1994 Isuzu Trooper, and I would like to know how to do so. I need to know how to install it.

    Looks like you have a chore to do this, as the coolant temperature sensors appear to be located at the rear of the engine. I have seen it mentioned in other posts that it is hard to get to, but don't know from personal experience.

    Here is link to a picture taken from the rear of the engine while on an engine stand. good luck.

    This is a shot from the rear of the engine. Looks pretty difficult to get to. Hope this helps.

    if it's the same as '92 & '93 looks like you have to pull the intake manifold - you'll want to be sure that sensor needs replacing

    Hi i have a 2004 mazda 6 I was wondering if you can tell me where is engine coolant temperature is and how do you change it ? Thanx

    First off it is technically called a "sender unit" secondly there is more then one. One reading temp coming in one reading temp going out. Find out which one you need to replace. I ll assume you got a check engine light the trouble code should tell you which one is at fault. So lets say you did all that stuff I mentioned. Removing the sending unit is easy make sure the car is cold find out the right size wrench you need disconnect the wires put the new one in connect the wires check coolant level .
