Key Features

  • Engine coolant temperature sender for gauge-equipped engines
  • Bolt-on attachment method for secure mounting
  • Male round connector with one terminal connection
  • Button terminal design for electrical contact
  • 1/4-18 thread size
  • Factory-calibrated and tested for specified actuation temperature
  • Built with formed bimetallic contact arm and thermal switching design

Detailed Description

Standard Ignition TS-52 is engineered for accurate coolant temperature signaling in classic Chrysler and Dodge vehicles with gauges. The sender uses calibrated thermal switching components and quality-controlled manufacturing to deliver consistent electrical contact at the specified temperature point. Its formed bimetallic contact arm and heat-responsive internal design support precise signal transfer to the gauge circuit.

This part cross-references 1T1153 and 2-1851 for the same application. Standard Ignition TS-52 is a direct-fit option for 1960-1963 Chrysler 300, 1961-1963 Chrysler Imperial, 1960-1963 Chrysler New Yorker, 1961-1963 Chrysler Newport, 1960-1963 Dodge Dart, and 1961-1962 Dodge Lancer equipped with gauges.

Common Uses

  • Restoring inaccurate or erratic coolant temperature gauge readings
  • Replacing a failed sender that no longer triggers the gauge circuit correctly
  • Addressing intermittent temperature signal loss at the instrument cluster
  • Repairing overheating concerns caused by misleading gauge feedback
  • Servicing gauge-equipped classic Chrysler and Dodge cooling systems

Installation Notes

Verify the thread size, connector style, and gauge-equipped application before installation. Clean the mounting surface and inspect the connector for corrosion or looseness to help maintain a stable electrical signal. Confirm the sender location and thread engagement match the original part before tightening.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition manufactures original equipment ignition products with in-process quality control from component selection through final testing. Each unit is calibrated and tested to confirm switch actuation at its specified temperature.
