Tired of trying to figure out where to mount multiple temperature senders in your engine swapped car? Want to clean up your engine bay by getting rid of a sensor?

Part No Description Cost
10096181 PCM/Gauge sending unit $14.81
12102748 Connector pigtail (incl. terminals) $17.29

This connector pigtail is a complete connector with terminals and wires installed, which would have to be spliced to the existing wires. Alternatively, you can get just the connector shell and terminals, which you could crimp onto the existing wires. Unfortunately most dealers are not able to get Packard electric parts through GM.
Part No Description
12078090 Packard connector including the seals
12103881 Terminals (three required
This is a three wire temp sender. It has a 5V supply from and signal to the ECM as well as a +12V resistance to ground style sender to drive the temperature gauge in the dashboard. It grounds through the housing.
