Where is Engine Temp Sensor?

Just finished connecting up the 2JZ-GE I have fitted in my Mk3, and got it started !

 

However, I'm showing a Fault Code 22, which is faulty Engine Temperature Sensor

 

Where on earth is this?! Searched the TSRM, but can't find any diagram showing where it is (also searched on here)

 

(I know where the Temp Gauge sender is, as well as the Electric Fan Temperature Switch, but can't find the ECU one)

 

Hope someone can help

Oh how annoying ! I've wired that one up to the electric fans . . .

 

And cut the wires in the loom to use for something else !

 

Guess I'll have to re-connect them then.

 

Many thanks

I am now thinking that there is NO temperature switch for the electric fans on the N/A engine . . .

 

The TSRM Circuit Diagram shows one, but doesn't state whether it's for the 2JZ-GE or 2JZ-GTE engine (for most wiring diagrams it specifies which it is for)

You are correct mate there is NO temp switch in an NA radiator because there is NO elec fans, only main viscous fan

That makes sense then !

 

But I shall have to fit one somewhere, as Mk3 Supras have additional electric fans, which I'd like to turn on if the engine gets hot.

 

Don't suppose there's a convenient blanked-off hole anywhere?!

I think the N/A Engine temp sensor is located on the engine, slightly behind/underneath the top water hose. I think the guys have so-far been referring to the TT temp sensor, which is on the water neck, on the other side of the engine.

 

With electric fans on an N/A, a common method of installing a sensor is to use an in-line adapter in the top water hose with a sensor in it.
