Drinking a beer and watching lake front bargain hunt restoration. Big timing it on Friday night.

Yessir!!!

Thanks to you and Pirate. I think I’m going to test/swap the thermostat. All of this kinda clicked as I talked it out. It’s running cooler than normal and throws the error in extreme cold. I bet the thermostat spring is bad/weak and when it opens, it fully opens instead of slightly based on sensor readings.

Turning the car off may allow it to close to the proper position based on temp? Basically resetting the condition

Hijack… help me OT mechanics.

2015 jeep wrangler jk. Only when the air temp is below freezing. Driving along and the engine throttle warning light comes on, engine temp gauge goes to zero, radiator fan kinks on to high. There is no visible change in my engine performance. I turn it off and it all resets and I go about my way.

In a 20 minute drive to work it may happen 2 or 3 times. Most of the time it’s after de acceleration but once it happened while cruising in a straight away.

I replaced my engine coolant temp sensor as my research said it was most common issue and did not work. ChatGPT says wiring issue. I’ve visible inspection exposed wiring and connectors finding nothing.

Where do I go from here? Thermostat, throttle body, is there another sensor?

Insert jeep joke here

Edit: my heat is not as warm as it used to be to be in this frigid cold but that may have nothing to do with it. The thread title caught my eye though

And no one has posted the what’s in the box gif from seven? OT is slippin

We took a trip to NYC this past weekend and it was everywhere. All the negatives people say about NYC were not to be had, but weed smoking/smell was all over. My 9year old thought it was cigarette smoke haha.

I’ve got to do this same repair. Any issues/pitfalls to avoid?

Well that makes sense and yes, there are an insane amount of those as well.

I just defaulted to thinking about specialty due to how many we have here as well. Local elementary schools have the damn things now.

GSU is very different from the rest

I'd imagine the dirt work on that swamp piece is going to be a good bit of the cost :lol:
