On 2018 JLU Sport 3.6L, I'm getting an error code P0116, coolant temp sensor. The fan's not spinning, coolant level is good. As it idles in the driveway, the temp gauge climbs right up past 220 and would keep going if I didn't shut it off. I'm assuming from this that the sensor (Mopar 68217702AC Coolant Temperature Sensor) should be replaced.
Earlier today whilst driving the Jeep, the fan sounded like it was attached to a P-51 in pursuit of Herman Goering's FW. I parked it, and when I came out and restarted the fan noise did not reoccur. When I got home I checked it and noticed the fan was now off. The Jeep did not overheat, according to the gauge, which I had displayed on the trip home.
Interestingly, the CEL is not coming on for this; I'm finding the code with BlueDriver.
But ... where is the sensor? I've looked all over and can't find it. The sensor is available from Quadratec, who rates it as an 'Intermediate' level task. From that, I am further assuming it's buried somewhere. Otherwise it would be a simple task.
Anyone? Anyone?
