The plug to the engine coolant sensor fell off. Is there a way I can place the wires back into the plug? (wires broke off right at plug) Also the plug beside it has one loose wire looking to replace that too. car wont start now...i dont know if i need a whole new set or just for me to replace that one plug/wiring.

Easiest thing to do will be to find new clips and solder them in. For the time being you could strip the wiring back some and solder them directly to the sensor until you find a replacement clip.

Uhhh, the car should start....
The only thing that would do is make your fans constantly running while the car is on. You might have a different problem if it won't start... |

You might have a different problem if it won't start... it will start but it wont accelerate i put it in first and hit the gas pedal the rpms goes down when i hit the gas not accelerating. whatever sensor is beside the engine coolant sensor has two wires for the plug but the one is loose. I was showing a code 22 and i looked it up one web site says engine coolant sensor and another one says water temp. sensor.

New clips, might be able to find some online off eBay or RockAuto. Worst case scenario you just go to a junkyard and find replacements.

Damn. I think I threw my extra pigtails away. If I find it in the morning I can send them to you. Just pay for postage. Also you can use the ones off any cars that has the 5sfe and maybe the 3sfe too.just snip and solder it to yours. There's plenty of camrys in junkyards.
