Keep tabs on engine temperature with the Standard Ignition Engine Coolant Temperature Sender TS-556. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1980-1983 Mercedes-Benz 240D, restoring the coolant-temperature signal your dash relies on.
Reads coolant temperature: the sender sits in the engine's cooling system and varies its output with the temperature of the coolant flowing past it.
Signal to the gauge: that changing signal is fed to the vehicle's temperature indicator so the reading tracks actual engine temperature.
Direct-fit replacement: built to replace the original sender on the listed application.
Mechanically, a coolant temperature sender simply translates coolant heat into an electrical signal. If a failed sender is the cause of an erratic, stuck, or inaccurate temperature reading, this part replaces it — diagnose the circuit and connections first, since wiring or gauge faults can produce similar signs.
This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
WT729, TS6131, 0055450324, 005545032464, TS-556
