Gidday, I've got a 95 Escudo H20A V6 which I'm doing a bunch of overdue maintenance on...
Anyway, at the rear of the left side water pipe there are what appear to be 2 water temperature sensors.
1 has a 3 pin plug and shows up on the Partsouq parts diagram. No problem there.
The other has a single blade terminal, which broke off so I need to replace it. However this sensor does not show on the parts diagram.
Any leads on a part number, or perhaps a vehicle model number which includes such a thing? I'm assuming it's original but there's no sure way of knowing, perhaps the water pipes have been changed for a similar but slightly different Suzuki at some point.
Thanks in advance.

My guess is that is the coolant temp sensor for the a/c system - 34850-50A00 - but I am just guessing.

That's brilliant, thanks very much!
I'll check the parts list under aircon but googling that number certainly brings up images of what looks like the right thing so I reckon you're onto it.
I suppose it's obvious in hindsight that it could be part of the aircon, but like most such situations it's never obvious beforehand.
Thanks again.

Actually, it requires a knowledge of how the a/c system works - the a/c controller senses coolant temperature and if it detects an over temp condition, it turns the condenser fan on to increase air flow through the radiator, and if the a/c is on, it disengages the compressor to reduce the temperature of the air flowing into the radiator. It is however, coincidental that your question came up a couple of days after I was looking at the SV series a/c control system and comparing it to the earlier SE series models.

The sensor is not listed as a cooling system part because it's not really a part of the cooling system, it's in the a/c harness section

I can certainly claim to know nothing (or less than that) about how aircon works so will forgive myself my error!
Have found the correct parts diagram now and you were spot on.
From the small amount of driving I have done in the vehicle it's apparent the aircon isn't working. Although the work I'm doing to it at the moment won't include fixing that (mild climate here in New Zealand) the temp sensor will be on the list to replace next time I've got an order in for some parts.
