Take it from me, you should try and do the sensor swap yourself.

It's harder waiting and finding people to help, and this is a relatively easy operation.

If you're lucky, the threads are the same in both locations, so you'll be able to pop the sensor off, thread the plug in as quickly as possible, and then install the sensor in the other location.

If the threads are different, the plug you can get at your local hardware store, and you'll need to find a sensor with the right threads to thread into the block.

You might have to extend the wire, but again, that's easy.

You can do this! The Pantera is a car you'll need to start to learn how to work on yourself.


This forum is great, and full of helpful people that just want to help you get your car running correctly. Sometimes though you need some thicker "internet skin" but we're here to help.

Dive in! You can't really screw anything up.
