Where is the temperature sending unit on a Chevrolet venture?

The temperature sending unit location on a Chevrolet Venture varies slightly depending on the year and engine. It's usually located on the engine block, near the thermostat housing, but not always directly on it. It's a small sensor, often with one or two wires attached.

To find it with certainty:

1. Consult your vehicle's repair manual: This is the most reliable method. The manual will have diagrams showing the exact location.

2. Use a reliable online parts diagram: Websites like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, or RockAuto allow you to select your year, make, and model Venture and view diagrams of the engine components. Look for "Temperature Sensor" or "Coolant Temperature Sensor."

3. Visual inspection (with caution): Once the engine is cool, carefully inspect the engine block and surrounding area near the thermostat housing. Look for a small sensor with wires, possibly near a coolant hose. Be cautious of hot surfaces even if the engine is cool to the touch.

Remember to always disconnect the negative battery terminal before working near electrical components.
