• 8 TAMD series applications

🔌 Function

Converts the temperature at its sensing point into a signal the instrument or alarm circuit can read, so the helm shows what the engine is actually doing.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Gauge reading wildly high, stone cold or pegged at one end
• Needle jumping or drifting with no change in engine load
• Temperature alarm sounding with a demonstrably cool engine
• Coolant weeping around the sensor body or threads
• Reading that only settles after the connector is wiggled

🛠️ Service Notes

• Quote the CU-2500 marking when checking against your engine — sensors of this size are easily confused between variants
• Test the wiring and earth before replacing the sensor; a poor earth mimics a failed sender exactly
• Seal the thread as originally fitted and avoid overtightening, which cracks the body

📦 Condition

• Genuine Volvo Penta part
• Brand new
• Supplied in original or equivalent packaging
