Hi,
I'm new to this forum and having issues with my vehicle so I figured posting here is worth a shot since I've seen so much helpful information on other issues I've encountered. I had the car diagnosed by VW and they found a few issues including telling me that the coolant temperature sensor is bad, the large radiator fan is broken, and a couple other evap and vacuum issues. I fixed all of the items and I replaced the fan and the temperature sensor but I'm still getting a code that I wasn't seeing before and the fans seem to run all the time (which I've read is a symptom of the code). Attached is the info given to me by VW about the sensor.
The code is "p0118 powertrain engine coolant temperature circuit high input". I double checked to make sure the temperature sensor is installed correctly and cleared the codes but it came back. I'm at a loss for where to go from here. I did some research and found out there's another temperature sensor? Could that possibly need to be replaced as well?
Vehicle: 2007 VW GTI 4 Door Base hatchback 2.0L
Symptoms:
Does anyone have an ideas of where I should go from here?
Thank you so much in advance!
