Where is the coolant temperature sensor located on a 2002 Chevrolet Camaro V6?

The coolant temperature sensor (CTS) on a 2002 Chevrolet Camaro V6 is typically located on the engine block, near the thermostat housing. However, there might be *two* coolant temperature sensors: one for the gauge and one for the PCM (Powertrain Control Module). The exact location of each might vary slightly depending on the specific engine (3.8L or others).

To be certain, you'll need to:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the best source for the precise location.

2. Use a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton manual for your specific year and engine will have diagrams and instructions.

3. Look up diagrams online: Websites like autozone.com or others offering repair information might have diagrams. Search for "2002 Chevrolet Camaro V6 coolant temperature sensor location."

Important Note: Before attempting to locate or replace the sensor, be sure the engine is completely cool to avoid burns.
