The Genie 97473GT is a genuine OEM Water Temperature Sensor designed for a wide range of Genie telescopic and articulating boom lifts, GS scissor lifts, and Genie and Terex light towers. As a direct OEM replacement, this sensor is built to the same specification as the original, ensuring accurate engine coolant monitoring and correct integration with the machine's existing warning and shutdown systems. Cross-reference part number 97473GT against your parts manual to confirm fitment for your specific serial range before ordering. Compatible equipment includes S-series telescopic booms such as the S-40, S-60 XC, S-60 TRAX, S-65, S-80, and S-85; Z-series articulating booms including the Z-45/25, Z-45/25J IC Power, Z-60/34, Z-62/40, and Z-80/60; GS rough-terrain scissor lifts including the GS-2668 RT, GS-3268 RT, GS-2669RT, GS-3369RT, and GS-4069RT; and AL, RL, and TML light towers including the AL4, AL4000, RL4, RL4000, TML-4000, and TML-4000N.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Accuracy — Calibrated to the same output range as the original sensor, so the engine management system reads coolant temperature correctly without recalibration or adjustment.
- Direct Plug-In Replacement — Matches the original connector, thread pitch, and housing profile for a straightforward swap into the existing sensor port.
- Broad Genie Fitment — Fits S-series telescopic booms, Z-series articulating booms, GS rough-terrain scissor lifts, and AL, RL, and TML light towers — one part number covering a wide service fleet.
- Protects Engine Integrity — Accurate temperature data allows the machine's warning and shutdown logic to respond correctly to overheating, preventing costly engine damage during operation.
- Operational Safety Compliance — Engine overheat protection is a critical safety system on powered aerial lifts and light towers; a correctly functioning sensor ensures that protection remains active at all times.
A water temperature sensor monitors the temperature of engine coolant and sends a continuous signal to the machine's instrument cluster or engine control system. That signal triggers warning indicators and, in many applications, initiates an automatic shutdown before coolant temperatures reach a level that can cause engine damage. When this sensor fails or reads inaccurately, the machine may run without adequate overheat protection, operate sluggishly due to incorrect fuel management inputs, or trigger false warnings that interrupt work. Replacing a faulty sensor with a correctly specified OEM unit restores the integrity of the engine's thermal management system and keeps the machine operating safely within its designed parameters.
