Engine Coolant Temp Sensor

Need help anyone have a extra Engine Coolant Temp Sensor for a FD. The upper sensor on the back of thermostat housing, the one with the green connector. GTA area. Screwed it while changing the fan switch sensor.LOL

Also forget to put my clifford 50.7 alarm in valet mode before disconnecting the battery, now in alarm mode, is there a reset anyone? Really bad day all around a simple job that now turn into a nightmare!

Thanks in advance!

I think the FC's are an upgrade for FD's as they kick on at a lower temp...

That's the thermoswitch, not the coolant temp sensor. They're 2 different things. As for if the FC coolant temp sensor is the same, I'm not positive but I believe it is.

I should explain better the one I'm looking for. It is one with the green connector, I just replaced the lower fan switch with a 185° instead of the factory 210° switch and broke the upper while reinstalling the alternator and now the car will not start and the fans start as soon as the key is turned. Just love to make work for myself!
