Do you have a 180deg thermostat?

 

[MattyKrackSVT]

no i dont. i cleared it and it hasnt come back on

 

[Schroeder02]

One I would keep you eye on the coolant level , and the temp gauge to see if your thermostat is suck open.

I would get that code when it was cold out and I had the 180deg thermostat, it was really hard to ever get the car to heat up

I've run a 170 degree t-stat for years and never had that code.

170? why?

im betting that its stuck open. although, most of these things go bad in the winter. for real, every winter, there are about 20 threads that get started just the way you started this one.

 

[scrammer]

oh, and why did you post this in MA forum?

aaron, can you have your lady move it to tech? thanks

We wanted a 180 but they gave us a 170. We ran it anyway, haven't had any issues.
