Got a 98 in the garage and the temp sensor in the head behind the power steering pump has died.

Can anyone tell me the part number of he sensor? It has 4 wires coming out of the plug. fans wont work without it.

Dodge dealer cant even find it in the parts book.

Are you sure it's the coolant temp sensor? usually when that goes, gauge pegs to 250 when key on. Fans not working could be fuse, or relay couldn't it?
Don't skimp on a few bucks either when comes to sensors, go with Mopar.
I "tried" equivalent and it was off by 30 degrees in sending info to PCM. i.e. at start up, computer thought I was already at operating temp. At operating temp, it was in safe mode thinking coolant temp was 250.
Just a little tip by experience.
