help with code.

Bryan22 · Nov 28, 2008

Got a code 116 (ECT sinal voltage higher or lower than expected) what, exactly, does this mean? is the sensor bad, or not necessarily? It was replaced about 3 months ago. or is it that the coolant isn't within the expected heat range? I'm lost someone help me illuminate the light bulb please!

Bump! Anyone? any ideas? please and thanks.

If you can consistently get that code in a KOEO or KOER test (clear the codes first), check your connector and wiring and make sure it looks good, and then I'd replace it. Hell, it's a $14 part at Autozone, I'd just replace it again anyway. You probably got a dud.

Did you replace the one in the block, or the one on the hose that runs to the heater core (next to the T-stat housing)? One of the sensors is for the dummy gauge (in the block), and the other sensor is for the computer (on the computer). I would think only the one by the T-stat housing would be throwing codes.

If you insist on testing it, check out this: http://www.autozone.com/shopping/repairGuide.htm?pageId=0900c1528018eba7
