Beck/Arnley Engine Coolant Temperature Switch P/N:201-1522
Help your dash temperature gauge report what your cooling system is doing with the Beck/Arnley Engine Coolant Temperature Switch 201-1678. It fits many Toyota and Lexus vehicles, among them the 1996-1997 Toyota RAV4, 1993-1996 Toyota Camry and 1994-1998 Toyota Supra. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine details. This temperature sender supplies engine coolant temperature information to the gauge in the instrument cluster.
Beck/Arnley develops replacement parts for foreign nameplates with close attention to form, fit and function. It works with a global sourcing network and makes sure every part meets its own requirements and specifications. If a failed sender is why your temperature gauge reads cold, reads high or moves erratically, this switch replaces it. Diagnose the gauge circuit first, because wiring faults or the gauge itself can cause similar readings.

What are signs this sender may need replacing?
Signs include a temperature gauge that stays on cold, reads high or moves erratically. Wiring faults or a bad gauge can cause the same readings, so diagnose the cause before replacing the sender.
How is it installed?
Work on a cool engine and follow the vehicle service information for the removal and installation steps. Check the coolant level afterward and top it off if any was lost.
