Engine coolant temperature sensor for the engine management system on the 1.8L K Series 4-cylinder petrol engine.

The sensor is a thermistor that threads into the coolant circuit and reports coolant temperature to the engine control unit, which uses the signal to set cold-start enrichment, warm-up fuelling, ignition timing and cooling fan operation.

A sensor that has drifted or gone open-circuit typically shows up as hard cold starting, poor fuel economy, a cooling fan that runs constantly or not at all, and a stored temperature-circuit fault code.

Frequently asked questions

What does the engine coolant temperature sensor do?
The engine coolant temperature sensor measures coolant temperature and sends that reading to the ECU, which controls fuelling, cold-start enrichment and the radiator fan. On the Freelander 1 1.8L K Series petrol, a faulty sensor can cause poor cold starting and an erratic temperature gauge.
Where is the coolant temperature sensor located on a Freelander 1?
The coolant temperature sensor typically threads into the coolant outlet or thermostat housing on the Freelander 1 1.8L K Series engine. It's a small screw-in sensor with an electrical plug, usually accessible from the top of the engine.
How do I know this fits my Freelander?
This sensor (MEK000030L) fits the Land Rover Freelander 1 (1996-2006) with the 1.8L K Series 4-cylinder petrol engine. Check your engine variant against your VIN before ordering, as diesel and KV6 versions use a different sensor.
