Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor for 1985‑1999 K1500 K2500 K3500, Accurate OEM Replacement Copper Sender

Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor for 1985‑1999 K1500 K2500 K3500, Accurate OEM Replacement Copper Sender Description

Vehicle temperature sending sensor designed for direct replacement and reliable temperature measurement. Key benefits Accurate temperature readings: Designed to measure from 40 C to +120 C or 40 F to 250 F with resistance accuracy within 3 percent, helping maintain correct gauge and engine control signals. Durable construction: Solid copper component provides stability and corrosion resistance for longer service life. Direct replacement: Matches a wide range of original equipment part numbers for easy swap without modification. What it does Sends temperature information to the vehicle gauge or control module by changing resistance as temperature varies. Helps the vehicle monitor engine or coolant temperature for proper operation of systems that depend on temperature input. Compatibility Fits these model years and vehicles: 19852004 Buick Regal and Century; 19862005 Cadillac DeVille; 19852004 Chevrolet S10; 19992010 Silverado 1500; 20002005 Impala; 19992010 GMC Sierra 1500. OE and replacement part numbers Replaces these part numbers: 10045847, 12146312, 15321686, 15326386, 1580468, 1580536, 213310, 2134396, 21352, 213928, 25036092, 25036708, 25036979, 25037182, 31022662, 33001793, 5744030, 8100458470, 8121463120, 8133450, 8153263860, 8250360920, 8250369790, J8133450, 5036708, TX3. Features and specifications Operating temperature range: 40 C to +120 C (equivalent to 40 F to 250 F) Material: Solid copper component for stability and corrosion protection Accuracy: Resistance tolerance within 3 percent Function: Temperature sending sensor for vehicle temperature monitoring systems Practical use scenarios a failed temperature sender on a 1999 Silverado 1500 to restore accurate gauge operation and prevent incorrect temperature indications. Install as part of routine engine maintenance or during a cooling system overhaul for a 2002 Impala to ensure reliable temperature feedback to the vehicle systems. Keep as a spare for fleet maintenance for older S10 or Sierra 1500 trucks to reduce downtime when a temperature sensor fails. Installation notes Intended as a direct replacement for the listed OE part numbers and compatible models. Confirm fitment by comparing the part numbers and connector style with the existing sensor prior to installation. For results, verify the vehicle year and model compatibility and inspect pictures and part numbers to ensure this is the correct sensor for your application.
