It is a direct-fit style replacement for a wide range of Toyota, Lexus, Mazda, Volvo, Jaguar, and other applications with an M16 thread and 2-terminal design.

Use part number 1712504 when replacing a faulty coolant temp sensor on select Toyota Camry, Corolla, RAV4, Tacoma, Tundra, and Lexus ES300, RX330, and GS350 applications.

Key Features

• Engine coolant temperature sensor for ECM temperature input
• M16 thread with 2 terminals on listed applications
• Supports engine management and A/C control feedback
• Cross-references Four Seasons 36424 and Standard Ignition TX40
• Global Parts part number 1712504

Application Details

This sensor reports coolant temperature to the engine control module so the system can manage fuel strategy, idle behavior, and cooling-related functions. On modern vehicles, that feedback also helps the ECM control the A/C system; on earlier vehicles, it was used to shut the compressor off and reduce the risk of compressor failure. The fitment list includes many Toyota and Lexus platforms, along with select Mazda, Volvo, Jaguar, Ford, Geo, Suzuki, and Pontiac models.

Compatible vehicle coverage includes 1989-2006 Toyota Camry, 1992-2003 Lexus ES300, 2004-2006 Lexus RX330, 2001-2004 Toyota Tacoma, and 2000-2004 Toyota Tundra. It also covers select Mazda 3, Mazda 6, Mazda CX-5, and Lexus GS350 applications where the listed M16-thread, 2-terminal sensor is specified.

What It Helps Fix

• Incorrect coolant temperature readings at the ECM
• Hard starting, rough idle, or poor warm-up behavior
• Cooling fan or A/C control issues tied to temperature input
• Check engine lights related to coolant temperature sensor faults
• Overheating-related drivability concerns caused by bad sensor data

Installation Notes

Verify the connector style, thread size, and engine location before installation. Listed applications include engine block, radiator, and thermostat housing positions depending on the vehicle. Confirm the exact year, make, and model match for your application, especially on Toyota Camry, Lexus RX, and Mazda 3 platforms where multiple coolant sensor configurations may exist.

Quality Assurance

Global Parts 1712504 is built as an OE-style replacement for the listed applications and is backed by established aftermarket interchange coverage, including Four Seasons 36424 and Standard Ignition TX40 references.
