thermo sensor
Hello
I have a 1995 polaris sportsman 400 and i need to get a thermo sensor for it, but polaris has stopped selling them... is there anyone who could tell me where to find one???
From what i can tell polaris kept changing the style of it from 93 and up so i think the one i get will have to be for a 95.
Thanks for the help!!

the pn# that i gave you and you just posted is the sensor in the engine. the pn# that tlc gave you IS the one that goes in the radaitor. that number was used form 1990 to 95' in diffeernt models. when you do check the pn# out on ronnies.com, it doesn't list a pn# or even a replacement for it. maybe as mentioned if you could find the resitance you might be able to match one up from something else w/ the same threads. good luck.

If you get a thread size then you can get a rad sensor from a auto store.
The thread sizes for my rad sensor ,Polaris 4010161. is M16x1.5. Turns out a rad sensor from a 84-88 Nissan Maxama or 86-99 Nissan stansa works.

There opening and closing temps are a little different, the will fan kicks on a little later and off later but well within over heating safety margins. I Know a guy who has used one for 3 years now.
I,m sure you can find a alternative as well. Heck you may have the same sensor and it just has a different Polaris number due to the it having a different end wire connection only, in that case just splice your old 2 wire to the 2 wires of the new sensor.

I know this is too late for helping Sportsman95, but cross checking pipe thread and operating temps, Polaris part# 4110189= $29.80 or 4010202=$68.00, will fit this machine, it has 1/2" pipe thread and opens around 175 degrees then closes at 155 degrees. I to looked for this, but came up empty at first. I went with a variable temp switch to control the fan, and put a water temp probe in the radiator where the sensor was bolted, (with the gauge under the seat to keep somewhat protected,as I dont do any deep water crossing) to see exactly what operating temps i run,and adjust fan accordingly. If the variable switch fails, the wiring is right there to put in a rocker switch for key on fan if needed
