2G Coolant Temp Circuit Code

[Tkzdsm]

Hey I am battling with my car and I have one code left to get rid of before I can finally get the CEL to go away and I believe it’s a code that was thrown because of a Coolant Temperature Circuit, does anyone know about how to go about this?

I don’t know where to even start because I had a different coolant temp code for the sensor itself but I replaced that and it reads temp just fine. I am lost and I don’t want to keep it sitting for any longer.

any help is appreciated thank you.

Can you be specific about the codes you were getting and what you have now? That will greatly help us answer.

I’m not too sure right now but if I do remember correctly it would be P0115

Let us know when you can check and be 100% sure.

P0115 would be an issue with the Engine Coolant Sensor and not related to the dashboard gauge. #2 in the picture, #1 is for the dash gauge. I think there is another for the A/C but I can't find it right now.

The connector/wires for the ECT sensor often fail so make sure to check them all the way back to the ECU.

Yes 98.99% sure that P0115 , part 2 was the sensor I had replaced and part 1 is what I was guided by my “mechanic” neighbor and it makes sense that the connection or wires are damaged or whatnot. If the wires are damaged what should I do next?

People usually search with google and get a replace pigtail to splice in if it's just the wires on the end. Otherwise the go back as far as needed to replace them.
