Hey Rich. I went to do this on my 01 sc2. The video led me right to the sensor, but the wires look like they are just one wire but that seemed to be the least of my problems. The wire was so corroded it just broke off from the sensor and where ever it connects to. I am a stuck here as I cannot trace where the wire broke off from. I see the sensor side but where is the other end to where the wire goes? Any suggestions?

@richpin06a :D although you've help this person mate there is still alot of people who would be interested in the answer to this question incase they may come across this problem on a different car make etc even though they haven't commented :D please answer the question publicly if you don't mind thanks

@SuicidalLooney I would but youtube will not let me post links here.

Thank you for the video, your video has been very helpful, i was able to identify my coolant sensor with your video and some research, mine is slightly different as it's a european car, good video! btw my car has 1 sensor/sender/guage with 4 cables and has a second port/plug/input next to it that is blanked off, i assume this is for the higher spec version of my car

@adanecki05 I have never seen a Autozone fuel cap so i do not know how good they are.I would figure they would be tested ahead of time to make sure of fit.

[adanecki05]

@richpin06a Does it matter if it's an AutoZone or OEM gas cap? Because that was the first thing we did was replace it.

[richpin06a]

@adanecki05 Most of the time a P0442 is a bad gas cap or the surface were the cap mates to.

Also, those things I replaced were just normal for the SL2.. nothing related to trying to get the MIL off, just explaining what I've had to do to the car since we've had it lol...

Noticed that the radiator has a very small hairline crack on the driver side (behind the headlamp)... do you have a video on replacing a radiator in a 2000 Saturn?
