driver side coolant sensor

Has anyone got a connector for the driver's side coolant sensor? Mine is intermittent and I would prefer a new one to match the new sensor.

Where can I get them from?

I can probably get you one today from the parts store and mail it out tomorrow. I will get back to you on it. I still have your mailing address on file...

I got one at the part's store tonight. At $35, they were priced to move :eek: :

My bud needed an alternator plug for his suburban a few weeks ago and it was going to be something like $70 shipped. I need to get into the OEM connector business. That's where the moneys at. I used to make almost $100 an hour building cables...

Mike,

sorry I missed this. The driver side one is only one green wire and goes to the gauge in the dash, not the ECM.

Is that the same connector for sure?

I still need one so if it is $35, it's $35.

Can you let me know?

Heh, I was about to return this to the parts store :)... After seeing your post, I went out to check it on my truck and it didn't fit... The pin on the coolant sensor is spaced further from the center than the plug that I got. I took it back today and got another one which *does* fit and it was $15 cheaper to boot (it was only $20).

Given the other thread that you have going on in off topic, I can 110% understand why I didn't hear from you. Women, making men crazy since the dawn of time...

Thanks!

So can you post the correct connector to bezerk and I'll pay you the costs? I can't believe a tiny piece of plastic is going to run me $30 or so!!!

PM me if that's ok and I can send his address and then send you the money. Thanks again Mike :)

No problem, just PM me his mailing address and I will ship it out and let you know the total. It should only take about a week to get to you...

Re: driver side coolant sensor

Got your plug shipped out today, 10/26. The plug was $20, shipping was $13 and one hour plus of my life due to a postal clerk who decided to be a hardass :roll:. Turns out that there is a regulation stating that the flat rate mailers cannot have "excessive" tape keeping it closed. This applies to the flap that holds it closed in particular. If it has tape running all the way across it, it is in violation of postal regulations and is not considered flat rate. So I ended up going to another post office and repackaging it with minimal tape. Because there was no way that I was going to remove the "excessive" tape short of destroying the mailer in the process. On top of that, I didn't want to stand in line for another 15 minutes plus just to have the same clerk wait on me a second time.

Just a FYI for anyone else looking for this plug it's AC Delco part number PT1357 and it has a list price of $27.73.

Did you receive your sensor yet? Mailed it out almost three weeks ago...

Mike - so sorry mate.

Please accept my apologies - between all the travelling and work I lost track. Can you PM me your paypal so I can hook you up?

Once again, I'm very sorry.

Thanks, it has arrived and as Rene said I installed it the other day.

Cheers!
