The Plastic clip is broken on the wire connected to the coolant temp sensor and the connection is loose. I would like replace the actual oem connector. Does anyone know where I can buy a new one?

1987 22RTE

Take a look at Ballenger Motorsports. I believe the Sumitomo connectors are the ones used on our era of Toyota trucks.

If the '87 is like the later models, the Coolant Sensor connector is green and has the number 10737 on it. The connector part numbers are 90980-xxxxx with the last five numbers being the number you see on the cennector. That would make your part number 90980-10737.

This is assuming that you are talking about the ECU coolant temp sensor and not the gauge. This also assumes your '87 is like the later models. I know some of the connectors are different depending on the year. Not sure if yours is the same.

If you indeed have that green connector, just take that part number to the dealer, or google it to find an online supplier. They go for about $8-$9 online.
