  • Female connector with 1 plug-in connection
  • Oval connector shape with 2 male blade terminals
  • Black and gold finish with brass and plastic construction
  • Built from materials selected to handle demanding underhood conditions
  • Tested for reliability during manufacturing

Detailed Description

Standard Ignition TX229 engine coolant temperature sensor is designed to replace the original sensor on select Buick, Chevrolet, Cadillac, GMC, and Saturn vehicles. It is a practical choice when servicing cooling-system temperature feedback on models such as the Chevrolet Cruze, Chevrolet Malibu, Chevrolet Equinox, and GMC Terrain. The direct-fit design helps match the original connector style and mounting requirements for the listed applications, including radiator-mounted and engine-mounted locations.

This part cross-references Delphi TS10468 and Stant 74160 for the same application. Standard Ignition TX229 is also referenced by multiple aftermarket numbers, making it a useful lookup point when comparing replacement options.

What It Helps Address

  • Incorrect coolant temperature readings
  • Illuminated engine warning lights related to temperature sensing
  • Poor fuel control caused by inaccurate coolant data
  • Cooling fan operation concerns tied to sensor input
  • Hard starting or rough running when the engine temperature signal is unreliable
