Where is this located on a '99 Ranger with the 2.5L engine? I want to try and replace it b/c the temp guage doesnt move past the "C'' no matter the weather conditions. also, the heater works VERY well so it can't be the thermostat stuck. any help would be appreciated, thanks

 

anyone?

 

wow, no one knows huh?

 

You should find it somewhere on the top of the motor, just follow whatever piping is connected to the water pump, mine wasn't to far away from the thermostat but I have a 95, it just had 2 little wires coming out of it and was threaded in, you take it out and you'll see coolant.

 

its on top of the thermostat housing. im having the same problem, mine fluctuates way to much

 

was there a recall on this problem? it seems to be a common problem from what i've read on here.

 

ok i see two little plugs on top of the thermostat. one is gray, and the other is a brownish color. both of them have two wires coming out of them. which one is it?

 

???
