There was a P0128 code triggered pcm. The vehicle was running fine but the temperature gauge in the dash was not operating. The fans were on high in the front of the vehicle and seemed to kick on immediately as soon as the car was started. This lead me to believe that the coolant temperature sensor was bad and not the thermostat because it controls the temp gauge in the dash.
A 19mm wrench was used to remove and install the sensor. Once the replacement temp sensor was installed more coolant was added to the vehicle before starting it. It took about a minute or so for the new sensor to be recognized and the fan then turned off on it’s own.
