Product Details

Standard Ignition TX315 is an engine coolant temperature sensor engineered for accurate temperature signal reporting in the cooling system. It uses a single round connector with two male pin terminals and a push-on attachment method. This sensor is used on select Ford Edge, Ford Escape, Ford F-250 Super Duty, Ford Ranger, Lincoln Nautilus, and Lincoln Corsair applications, including locations on the radiator hose, coolant outlet, and coolant crossover tube. This part cross-references JX6Z12A648B and WT5073 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Incorrect coolant temperature readings on the dash or scan tool
• Engine control issues caused by a failing temperature signal
• Cooling system warning lights related to sensor faults
• Hard starting or drivability concerns tied to inaccurate temperature input
• Replacement needs after sensor damage or connector wear

Installation Notes

Verify the connector style, terminal count, and mounting location before installation. This TX315 sensor is used in multiple positions depending on application, including radiator hose, coolant outlet, and coolant crossover tube locations. Confirm vehicle year, make, model, and sensor placement against the existing OE unit before service.
