Q: How to replace the Coolant Temperature Sensor on GMC Canyon?
A: The first step before replacing an engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor requires draining part of the cooling system down to the sensor's location. Remove the ect sensor electrical connector from its connector on the engine wiring harness and disconnect both electrical components before you remove the camshaft cover ect sensor electrical connector. Treat the coolant sensor delicately since any damage will reduce the fuel control system's performance. You can use the ect sensor socket (J 45861) to take out the ect sensor from its position in the Cylinder Head. You must use gm p/n 12346004 (Canadian P/N 10953480) or equivalent thread sealer when installing any ect sensor without applying sealant. Start by inserting the ect sensor into the Cylinder Head by hand and lock it in place with the ect sensor socket (J 45861) at a torque of 14 n.m (10 lb ft). After installing the ect sensor electrical connector to the camshaft cover reconnect the engine wiring harness to its respective connector on the ect sensor and top up the cooling system.
Q: How to replace the Coolant Temperature Sensor on GMC Sierra 1500?
A: To replace the ECT sensor, you'll need to drain the cooling system below the sensor first, then replace it. Remove the ECT sensor from the ECT sensor electrical connector. When installing a new sensor, see to it that parts that are being replaced are the right part number for the application. For reuse of the old sensor, coat threads with sealant GM P/N 12346004 (Canadian P/N 10953480) or equivalent. Mount the ECT Sensor and tighten it to 20 N.m (15 lb ft). Reconnect the ECT sensor electric connector and fill up the cooling system. Be careful when handling the coolant sensor because if it is damaged, it will affect the work of the control system of fuel and ensure that the right torque specifications are used for proper work and avoid damages.
Q: How to Safely Handle and Replace the Coolant Temperature Sensor on GMC Yukon?
A: To replace the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor, you need to drain the cooling system up to a level below the ECT sensor. Remove the wiring harness electrical connector from the ECT sensor and then remove the sensor. When installing the new sensor make sure the replacement parts are of correct part number for the application and any thread locking compound, lubricants, corrosion inhibitors, or any sealants that are specified for application must be applied as specified because they can influence final torque and operation of parts. In the case of using the old sensor, apply sealant GM P/N 12346004 (Canada P/N 10953480) or equivalent to the threads. Install the ECT sensor and tighten 20 N.m (15 lb ft). Finally, bolt the engine wiring harness electrical connector onto the ECT sensor and top off the cooling system.
