Engine Coolant Temperature Sender Overview
The Standard Ignition TS-380 engine coolant temperature sender is built for vehicles that use a gauge-based temperature signal or a coolant temperature indicator light. It uses a screw-on design with a rectangular plug-in connector and two blade terminals for a direct electrical connection in the cooling system.
Fits 1997-2008 Ford F-150, 1997-2004 Ford F-250, 1999-2005 Ford F-250 Super Duty, 1997-2000 Ford F-350, 1999-2000 Ford F-350, 1999-2004 Ford F-350 Super Duty, 1997-2002 Ford Expedition, and 1998-2002 Lincoln Navigator, with additional coverage for E-Series and related Ford truck applications with gauges.
Key Features
- Screw-on attachment method for secure installation in the cooling system
- Female rectangular connector with one plug-in connection point
- Two male blade terminals for electrical signal transfer
- Brass and plastic construction with black and gold finish
- Factory-calibrated and tested for switch actuation at the specified temperature
- Thermal switch design uses a formed bimetal contact arm for precise movement
Detailed Description
Standard Ignition TS-380 is an engine coolant temperature sender engineered to deliver a calibrated temperature signal for the gauge or indicator circuit. The internal thermal switch design uses wax and bimetallic contact movement to trigger electrical contact at the specified lower-temperature set point, helping the cooling system report temperature accurately. This part number, TS-380, is listed across a wide range of Ford and Lincoln applications, including F-150, F-250, F-350, Expedition, E-Series vans, and Navigator models equipped with gauges.
This part cross-references Dixie Electric Ltd 12817 for the same application.
What It Helps Solve
- Inaccurate coolant temperature gauge readings
- Intermittent or failed temperature signal to the dash gauge
- Coolant temperature indicator light concerns on supported applications
- Electrical contact issues caused by worn sender internals
- Temperature reporting problems in Ford truck and van cooling systems
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the connector style, terminal layout, and thread-in mounting style before installation. Confirm whether the vehicle uses gauges or a coolant temperature indicator light, since fitment notes vary by application. The TS-380 is used in multiple Ford and Lincoln platforms, including 1997-2008 Ford F-150 and 1998-2002 Lincoln Navigator models, so matching the original sender configuration is important for correct operation.
Quality Assurance
Standard Ignition states that each thermal switch is calibrated and tested during production to confirm actuation at the specified temperature. As an OE ignition product manufacturer, Standard Ignition maintains quality control from component selection through finished product inspection.
