Is this the same sensor that commands the cooling fans to turn on?

Great vid! Do you know where the cooling system temperature sender/sensor is located on a 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue? The fans work and the fans’ relays are good but I can’t locate the cooling system temperature sender sensor to test it and replace it. Thanks.

You might as well as replace the purge valve while you're there.

How similar is this to the 2017 Buick Lecrosse if at all? 🤞

3:10 That locking mechanism is a hassle. I have been at for 2 hours.

18mm socket is even bigger in my 2014 buick enclave.

This is how you change this component but it does not fix the issue
