Been digging around and im not able to find a picture of where im supposed to find this thing, i hear its on the drivers side head but if im looking at it correctly this thing is pretty low with a ton of crap in the way, i was hoping i wasnt going to have to remove a crap load of stuff to get my big hand down there to unscrew it and put the new one in, anyone have a pic of the ect sensor on a newer model blazer? pref 2004.

i took a pic of what i think the ect sensor is, am i correct?



if that is the ect sensor im guessing the best course of action would be to remove it from under the wheel well as if i was changing that pesky spark plug.

thanks for any thoughts guys,

little extra info, this all started from getting a p0128 code, the temp gauge reads hot sometimes and reads normal other times.

 

 

hope this helps!

alldata shows it pays .5 hr to replace.
