Temperature Transmitter is the coolant temperature sender within the engine cooling and instrument gauge circuit, for V8 petrol applications and calibrated for hot-climate operation.

Threaded into the engine coolant passage, it varies its resistance with coolant temperature and sends the signal to the instrument temperature gauge. The hot-climate calibration sets the gauge response for high ambient operating conditions.

Frequently asked questions

What does the PRC6317 temperature transmitter do?
The PRC6317 temperature transmitter is the coolant temperature sender for V8 petrol engines. Threaded into the engine coolant passage, it varies its resistance with coolant temperature and sends the signal to the instrument temperature gauge. This unit carries a hot-climate calibration for high ambient operating conditions.
Which Land Rover models does this V8 temperature transmitter fit?
This temperature transmitter fits the V8 petrol Defender from 1990 to 2006, Discovery 1 from 1989 to 1998, and Range Rover Classic V8 EFI from 1986 to 1994. It's specified for V8 petrol engines only, so confirm your engine before ordering.
What does the hot-climate calibration mean?
The hot-climate calibration sets the gauge response for high ambient operating temperatures. It tunes how the temperature gauge reads across the range so the reading stays meaningful in hot conditions. Match this calibration to your original sender if your V8 was specified for hot-climate operation.
What are the signs the coolant temperature sender is failing?
Common signs include a temperature gauge that reads high, low, or stays flat regardless of engine warmth. The sender's resistance element typically drifts or fails over time. On a V8, a false low reading can hide genuine overheating, so an erratic gauge is worth checking early.
