There are multiple possible sensor locations but the most popular is on the exhaust side rear of the 1GD 2.8 litre.
A customer sent these pics to us. He wanted to monitor a location on the head that was representative of coolant temp and found a location on the front of the head. This may be slower to show absolute overheating.
This current model Hilux has a dual bolt-on sensor EG01-2 installed with a sensor on the front of the head near the top radiator hose outlet, and the second on the rear of the head.
