Detailed Description
This Bosch engine coolant temperature sensor is used to report coolant temperature to the vehicle’s control system so the engine can manage fueling, warm-up strategy, and cooling fan operation. It is listed for Fits 1994-1995 BMW 530i, N/A; Fits 1994-1995 BMW 540i, N/A; Fits 1993-1995 BMW 740i, N/A; Fits 1993-1995 BMW 740iL, N/A; Fits 1994-1995 BMW 840Ci, N/A; Fits 1988-1994 BMW 750iL, N/A; and Fits 1985-1987 Volkswagen Quantum, N/A. This part cross-references URO 12621288158 for the same application.
Common Issues This Sensor Can Address
- Incorrect coolant temperature readings on the dash or scan data
- Hard starting or rough running during cold engine operation
- Rich or lean fuel mixture caused by inaccurate temperature input
- Cooling fan or warm-up control concerns tied to sensor signal errors
- Check engine light conditions related to coolant temperature circuit faults
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the connector style and thread/port location against the original sensor before installation. Inspect the cooling system for leaks, corrosion, or damaged wiring that could affect sensor performance.
