04199260 Water Temperature Sensor for BF4M/BF6M1013 TCD2012

The Deutz part number 0419 9260 refers to a water temperature sensor (coolant temperature sensor) used in various Deutz diesel engines. Here’s what you need to know:

Key Features of Deutz 0419 9260 Water Temperature Sensor

• Function: Measures engine coolant temperature and sends data to the gauge or ECU.

• Type: Typically a 2-pin NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor (resistance decreases as temperature rises).

• Compatible With:

  • Deutz FL912 / FL913 (air-cooled engines with liquid-cooled variants)

  • Deutz BF4M / BF6M1013 series

  • Deutz TCD 2012 / TCD 2013 (turbocharged engines)

  • Some F4L912 / F6L912 models

Symptoms of a Faulty Sensor

• Inaccurate temperature gauge readings (stuck high/low)

• Engine running too cold/overheating (due to bad signal)

• Check engine light (if connected to ECU)

Testing & Replacement

1. Resistance Check:

   • Use a multimeter to measure resistance:

     • ~2,000–3,000Ω at 20°C (68°F)

     • ~200–300Ω at 80°C (176°F)

   • If resistance doesn’t change with temperature, replace it.

2. Installation:

   • Locate the sensor (usually near the thermostat housing).

   • Drain some coolant before removal to avoid leaks.

   • Apply thread sealant (if required) and tighten securely.
