how change Intake Air Temperature IAT Sensor 2004 Toyota Camry LE
Is that what trigger the cooling fans on Cuz the fans on my car kicks on
late
It was really cool to see a how to automotive video done by a female… At
the same time try to being your accuracy up a little bit in your next
video. Keep at it in any case!
I meant to say radiator fluid…. I was wrong too!
Thank you for this, Susan!
Thank you! Glad you found it useful!
Thank you Susan, You just saved me $200 dollars!
It sounds like your Idle air control valve. This isnt the best video but it
kinda gives you an idea of what could be causing the problem. It wont
allow me to post the complete link but just remove the spaces I entered. w

Thank you! yes…. I realized that I had said that after I had shot the
video… Needless to say, I felt really silly! I was determined to make
this video because I searched high and low and there was not one on the net
anywhere! It was fun to do and the response has been overwhelming! Thanks
for stopping by!
Thank you! Glad it helped you!
at 39 seconds you said you will lose some transmission fluid when you
loosen the sensor…why would there be any transmission fluid in the
cooling system…you may have bigger problems than a simple overheating
issue.
I also noticed that you said ‘un-loosen’ , BUT!!!! you know what your
doing, so Major Brownie points to you!!! i wish my wife could/(would) help
me with the cars. AWESOME VIDEO!! Keep it up your doing Great!!!! And
remember, ‘English is my language and i can use it however i want…’ -me

Hello I have camry 01 recently and i don’t no why it start overheating
little bit but not all the time and I think the fan not coming on in time
so does that sensor in Video response on fans come on off or not and do you
think the water pump make that problem also thanks
Thanks so much! I am glad I was able to help! I saved myself so much money!
It is actually called the coolant temperature sensor!
Thank you for the comment although not sure what you are referring to. Fans
were never mentioned?
Hi Susan, my CEL come on again, and I’m pretty sure that’s the problem now.
So I have yet to try it. Is it in the housing next to the Oil Filter with
two bolts in it?
You`re welcome!
You are so welcome!!! My pleasure…. that is exactly why I made this
video! I am so glad I was able to save you money!
You are welcome!
Hi Susan, how do you replace a thermostat in the 01 Solara? I can’t seem to
locate it.
thanx alot susie
Thanks so much! There was no video for my make & model & year when I needed
it, so I asked a few questions at the part store and then just figured it
out! Im glad I was able to help so many people save some money!!
Hi, thanks for the awesome tips. I just changed mine on my 2001 Camry LE.
Dealer quoted $275, independent mechanic quoted $225. I went to Autozone
and spent $21.99 for the ECT sensor and $9.99 for a gallon of antifreeze.
Thanks so much!!!!!
The themostat is in a kinda hard spot…. I wrecked my car so I cant video
it. But, if you stand in front of your car facing the engine, it is going
to be on the left hand side down about half way into the motor. You have to
look for it but if you follow your hoses you will find it. Once you find it
it is fairly simple to replace! Good luck… let me know how it goes!
Thanks! The video helped me 🙂
Wow thank you so much. I will be following you!
Radiator sensor
Thanks for the reply! Are you a grammar professor? If you watched it
further you would have noticed that I corrected the faux pas about the
transmission fluid. The bottom line is this, I replaced it properly and
saved myself quite a bit of money and have helped many other people with
the video as well. Have a great day!
You are nuts.! Saved yourself a few dollars for a 3 min fix….lol
You are a genius Susan. I just replaced my sensor after watching your
tutorial video and now my CEL is off. Thank you so much
