broken sensor what does it do?

[san supra]

its on the bottom of the t-stat housing and its blue. The connector broke off and i cant seem to find what it is or what it does in my haynes manual.

The connector has black sealant is the back of it so i cant crimp the wire because thats right where it is broken, how do i fix it?

AC water temp switch or coolant temp sensor. you can peel off the black sealant, remove the crimp connector inserts from the connector for better access, strip and solder the wires in place, the click the inserts back into the connector and it's all good. You may need to solder in an extension wire if it's too short.

it should be fine if you are using the stock clutch fan and nothing else is wrong with your cooling system. just fix it asap

Save this link, and toss that Haynes manual in the trash. It is the factory service manual online.

It's not sealant, it's a rubber gasket.
