anyone know where this little guy might be located??? overdrive temp sensor

 

It is in the outpul line of the transmission. Th line that goes toward the front of the truck on the drivers side, at the bend.

 

it has threads on one side and the plug on the other... i have no idea where to look. i have the new one in my hand... just have to find the old one to swap it with....

 

Get under the truck. Get on the drivers side. Look at the 1/2' line coming out of the transmission, in the front (not the back)going forward. Where it bends is where the sensor goes. It is about right below the linkage brackets at the front edge of the trans pan. About 2 inches from the transmission. If you find the edge of the trans pan at the drivers front corner, you will see it.

 

after my last post i went out and sure enpugh... you nailed it. thanx!!!I took the old one out only to realize the new ones thread side was larger... old one probly 5/8 new one 3/4 ya think i could put a male/female adapter on there?? thank you again

 

I'd take it back and get the correct one.

 

thing is.. i got it from the dealer... they say that IS the correct one... its and endless battle ahahhaaa

 

What part number is it?

 

the number on my invoice is 4638763
the stamped number on the sensor is 3919909 1441
again the two parts are identical exept for the size of the male end. The ne sensor measures 3/4 across the trhreads and the old one i'm sure is 5/8. the cavity inside the sensor is a bit longer on the old one as well. if you need me to i can take pics i'm just not too sure how to put them on here. but i could email them if need be. thanx

 

The last time I bought the switch it had a part number of 56026720. This may have been superseeded with a different number but it is the right size.
