  Temp Gauge Sending Unit, Engine Coolant Temperature Sender, Sender Assembly Temperature, sw925

• Description:

  This Genuine Ford engine coolant temperature sender is the gauge sending unit that reports engine coolant temperature to the dash temperature gauge, an application spanning a wide range of classic and later Ford vehicles equipped with a temperature gauge. Cataloged by Ford as a Sender Assembly - Temperature and also carried under the Motorcraft SW-925 designation, the unit threads into the engine cooling passage and changes its electrical resistance with coolant temperature, driving the needle on the instrument-panel gauge so the driver can monitor warm-up and watch for overheating. A buyer replacing this sender is usually dealing with a temperature gauge that reads erratically, pegs high or low regardless of actual engine temperature, stays cold after full warm-up, or has gone completely dead. A faulty sender, or corrosion at its terminal, is a frequent cause of an inaccurate or non-responsive temperature gauge even when the engine and cooling system are healthy. Installation threads the sender into its coolant port using an appropriate thread sealant, with the engine cold and the cooling system safely depressurized; reconnect the gauge wire to the sender terminal and top off coolant afterward, then verify the gauge sweeps to a normal reading as the engine warms. Because it is a broadly applied sending unit used across many Ford truck and passenger-car lines over multiple decades, confirm the thread size and gauge system match the original before installing. As a Genuine Ford Motorcraft component it provides the correct resistance curve for an accurate factory temperature reading.
