if you have and know how to use a multimeter you can check the sensor

you heat some water in the microwave and measure the waters temp with a thermometer and then dip the sensor tip in the water and meausre the ohms, the try with some cool water and check the ohms again. if its good then it should correspond with that chart.


or you can just blindly throw parts at the car, it may not be the sensor itself but a wiring fault between the sensor and ECU, but thats hard to check without a scantool.
