Standard Ignition TX235 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor

Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor for Ford Applications

Standard Ignition TX235 is a direct-fit engine coolant temperature sensor built to restore accurate temperature readings in the engine. It uses copper alloy conductors for strong electrical conductivity with low resistive loss, and its robust construction is made for the demands of professional service work.

• Direct-fit replacement for damaged OE temperature sensors
• Bolt-on attachment method for secure mounting
• Female connector with round plug-in design
• 2 blade terminals with female terminal ends
• Built with copper alloy conductors for efficient signal transfer
• Compatible with Ford Explorer, Ford Edge, and Ford Taurus applications
• Standard Ignition TX235 for temperature signal restoration

Detailed Product Overview

This engine coolant temperature sensor is used to monitor coolant temperature and send that information to the vehicle’s engine management system. Accurate readings are important for proper fuel control, cooling fan operation, and temperature-related diagnostics. Standard Ignition TX235 is a direct replacement for select Ford Explorer, Ford Edge, and Ford Taurus models, making it a practical choice when the original sensor is damaged or no longer reading correctly.

This part cross-references CTSA190 and DB5Z12A648A for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Incorrect or unstable coolant temperature readings
• Check engine light concerns related to temperature sensor faults
• Hard starting or rough running caused by inaccurate engine temperature data
• Cooling fan operation issues tied to faulty temperature input
• Driveability problems from a failing engine coolant temperature sensor

Installation Notes and Tips

Install TX235 using the bolt-on mounting point and verify the female round connector seats fully before returning the vehicle to service. Confirm the connector type, terminal style, and application match the original sensor before installation. For best results, inspect the cooling system and wiring connector for corrosion, damage, or coolant contamination during replacement.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition builds this sensor with high-grade materials and a service-focused design to meet the demands of professional repair work. The construction is intended to provide reliable electrical performance and consistent temperature signal output in everyday use.
