Coolant Temperature Sender is a thermistor-type sensor threaded into the engine coolant circuit that produces a varying electrical resistance in response to coolant temperature changes, driving the dashboard temperature gauge.

Fitted to the 2.25 Petrol 4-Cylinder and 2.6 Petrol 6-Cylinder engines, the sender is located in the cylinder head or water jacket and provides the primary temperature signal to the instrument panel gauge.

Frequently asked questions

What does the coolant temperature sender 560794 do on a Series Land Rover?
The sender 560794 is a thermistor-type sensor threaded into the engine coolant circuit that changes its electrical resistance in response to coolant temperature, driving the dashboard temperature gauge. It's fitted to the 2.25L petrol and 2.6L six-cylinder petrol engines on Series 2, 2A, and 3 models.
Where is the coolant temperature sender located on the Series 2.25L or 2.6L engine?
The sender is typically threaded into the cylinder head or water jacket, directly in the coolant flow path. This position gives it a direct reading of coolant temperature as it leaves the engine on both the 2.25L and 2.6L petrol applications.
What causes the temperature gauge to read incorrectly on a Series Land Rover?
A faulty coolant temperature sender 560794 is a common cause of an inaccurate gauge on Series 2, 2A, and 3 models. The thermistor's resistance value drifts with age, causing the gauge to read high, low, or fail to move at all. Check the sender and its earth connection before suspecting the gauge itself.
