FAQs

What does a coolant temperature sensor do?

It measures the temperature of the engine coolant and sends this information to the vehicle's computer (ECU), which uses it to manage fuel injection, ignition timing, and cooling fan operation for optimal performance and efficiency.

How do I know if my coolant temperature sensor needs replacing?

Common signs include the Check Engine Light, rough engine idle, poor fuel economy, difficulty starting, engine overheating, or erratic temperature gauge readings.

What is the voltage specification for this sensor?

This Hella coolant temperature sensor operates at 12 Volts.

What does 'NTC Sensor' mean?

NTC stands for Negative Temperature Coefficient. This means the sensor's electrical resistance decreases as the temperature increases.

What is the thread size and spanner size for this sensor?

The thread size is M12x1.5, and the required spanner size for installation/removal is 21mm.

Does this sensor come with a gasket?

Yes, this sensor comes with a gasket/seal for a proper installation.

Can I use this sensor if my car's OEM part number is different but listed as a cross-reference?

While cross-references indicate compatibility, it is always best to verify fitment based on your vehicle's specific year, make, and model, or consult a parts specialist to ensure a correct match.

What is the warranty on this Hella sensor?

Warranty information is typically provided by the seller. Please refer to the seller's listing or contact them directly for details on the warranty period and terms.

Troubleshooting

Check Engine Light illuminates with P0115-P0119 codes (Engine Coolant Temperature Circuit Malfunction)

Verify the electrical connector is securely attached. Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the wiring is intact, the sensor itself may be faulty and require replacement.

Engine runs rough or stalls, especially when cold or hot

Check if the coolant temperature sensor is providing erratic or incorrect readings. If the sensor is suspected, verify its resistance across different temperature ranges or replace it.

Cooling fan not operating correctly (not turning on/off at appropriate temperatures)

The coolant temperature sensor provides input for fan operation. Incorrect readings can cause fan issues. Test the sensor's output or replace it if necessary.

Poor fuel economy

An inaccurate coolant temperature reading can cause the ECU to use an incorrect fuel mixture. Replace the sensor if it is determined to be faulty.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets Original Equipment (OE) quality standards for reliable performance.
  • Designed for a precise fit, simplifying installation.
  • Includes a gasket for a complete and leak-proof seal.
  • Utilizes NTC sensor technology for accurate temperature readings.
  • Manufactured by Hella, a reputable brand with extensive electronics experience.

Cons

  • Requires careful verification of vehicle compatibility before purchase.
  • As a replacement part, it does not add new functionality beyond its intended purpose.
  • Installation may require specific tools or mechanical knowledge.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Verification: Before purchasing, it is crucial to verify that part number 6PT 009 107-131 is compatible with your specific vehicle make, model, and year. Check your vehicle's service manual or consult a professional if unsure. Cross-reference with the provided OEM part numbers if possible.

Installation: Installation typically involves locating the existing coolant temperature sensor on the engine block or cylinder head, disconnecting the electrical connector, and carefully unscrewing the old sensor. Ensure the engine is cool before starting. Apply a small amount of thread sealant (if recommended by vehicle manufacturer) to the threads of the new sensor, but avoid getting it on the sensor tip. Screw in the new sensor hand-tight, then use a wrench (spanner size 21) to tighten to the manufacturer's specified torque. Reconnect the electrical connector. Bleeding the cooling system may be necessary after installation.

Care: This sensor is designed for long-term use and requires no routine maintenance. However, it is essential to ensure the cooling system is properly maintained to prevent premature failure of components, including the coolant temperature sensor. Regularly check coolant levels and condition.
