Temperature Sensor Lesson Learned
Replaced Water Pump, was not careful taking Temp Sensor off, broke it and had to replace.
1st one NAPA, did not work.
2nd one NAPA, did not work.
3rd one O'Reilly's, pins on wire plug did not match.
4th one Ford Dealership, Works Fine.
1st 3 Temp Sensors 18.00 each.
4th Temp Sensor from dealership 12.00.
Severly frustating lesson learned, Hope it will Help Others.

What? Ford dealer part LESS than the parts store? Are we in the twilight zone here? 
When it comes to sensors, many times the aftermarket stuff just isn't up to snuff on the newer rigs. Sorry you had to learn it the hard way, but thanks for sharing your experience.
