Where is the engine temperature sending unit on a 2005 Chevy aveo?

The engine temperature sending unit on a 2005 Chevy Aveo is typically located on the cylinder head, near the thermostat housing. However, the exact location can vary slightly depending on the engine type (1.6L or 1.4L).

To find it definitively:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the best place to start. It should have diagrams showing the location of various sensors.

2. Use a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton repair manual specific to your 2005 Chevy Aveo will provide detailed diagrams and instructions.

3. Look online: Search for "2005 Chevy Aveo engine temperature sensor location" along with your specific engine size (1.6L or 1.4L) on sites like YouTube or automotive forums. Images and videos can be extremely helpful.

Important Note: The engine must be completely cool before attempting to locate or replace the sensor. The coolant will be very hot and can cause serious burns.
