Thank you a million times! Your video was extremely helpful!

One handed no less. Impressive! I have a standard 2016 ATS, so hopefully the absence of the turbo will make it a bit easier for me. Hopefully. Thanks for this!

[@AliGravi89]

Yeah it will be easier you are welcome good luck

I just got the code p0116 for my 2014 cadillac cts 2.0t. Its the engine coolant temperature sensor. Im planing on replacing the sensor, housing, and thermostat just to make sure everything is new. Thanks for the vid. I believe the parts will be approximately $100.

[@AliGravi89]

Yes it's. I got mine 30$ used because it's very hard to find original part at Iraq 🇮🇶

[@AliGravi89]

Sorry it was 45$ I forgot 😅

[@gilbertjordan1970]

Wheres that sensor? Trying to replace it now cand find it

[@jims8887]

Thank you for the excellent video! Now I know what symptoms to look for if my thermostat starts going bad. Nice job, getting the job done without having to remove all that other stuff. I'll use some silicone lube I think when I reinstall my filter box.

[@AliGravi89]

I'm glad this is helpful thanks for watching

[@Papisartee]

Man i had the same symptoms i changed the sensor & it still did it, been running low on coolant for a while

Help me out, 2016 CT’s 2.0 noticed fans running after come home lately. It overheated today first time ever. Towed it home to be safe. Water was about a 16 ounces low. Took to Autozone For scan. No codes found. It Won’t overheat again. Scared to drive it on highway.

[@AliGravi89]

Bro same thing happened with me 4 time and there is no code it was very hard to know what's the problem You have to be careful when you see the heat geat going up open the hode and punch the radiator fan if it's not working and then it will work after 4 time happen I opened the ECU on radiator fan it doesn't happen it's been one year

[@Papisartee]

@@AliGravi89mine happen same as yours.. threw me a temp sensor code . Fixd it and still does the leaking water

[@daviddominguez7545]

I just finshed this video. One question, we dont need a gasket when reinstalling housing?

[@AliGravi89]

@daviddominguez7545 it has o ring inside around the thermostat

[@joway97]

Thank you!

[@DeRock401]

Got this same problem. I’m gonna pay someone to do it tho. I don’t want to deal with having to drain the coolant first.

[@DeRock401]

I changed the thermostat and it wasn’t the issue. It was actually the coolant temperature sensor which was a PAIN IN THE ASS to get too. It’s behind the engine.

[@dennybohan8455]

My Ats fan not coming on. Even if i blast the AC, but if i give the fan a twirl/spin, it starts spinning. Seems it won't come on when it suppose to. What could be the problem? .Thermostat, fan control module, fan motor, wiring, fuse. I don't think the ats uses relays.

[@AliGravi89]

You should 1st diagnose your car by computer and make sure the fan working by testing on live data it will give you error code I'm suspect the Fan Control Module Don't drive the car it will overheat

[@dennybohan8455]

@@AliGravi89 indeed i did test the fan power, wiring, check fuse and its all good. Tried to drive it, but soon as i saw it overheating, i pulled over and shut it off. I ordered the control module for overnight, glad its easy to change.

[@charlesjuett7445]

Mine did the same thing. Car over heated and fan never came on. I hooked up 12 volts to the fan and it still did not come on. I replaced the fan without having to remove alot of parts. Now I think my Thermostat is failing so that's why I'm here

Hi there...I have a cadillac ats 2013 cooling fan not faction put the cage is quarters and radiator getting hot (100f) can you tell me what’s the problem...thanks

[@AliGravi89]

check engine light is on or not . check all fuses if you turn the AC on the radiator fan should work with it if not Diagnose it

[@thearrow5793]

Ali Gravi 89 thank you for reply ...I do not have a check engine light and when I push A/C nope fan is working....

I have the 3.6. Looks like I'm gonna have to remove the A/C compressor out of the way

What’ size socket did you use to take out the thermostat housing??

[@AliGravi89]

10 mm socket

[@danabennett2524]

My caddy is heating up and its also don't catch it sounds like it don't want to start is it a sensor or something like a feul pump

[@bryantrandles3587]

Couple questions, when you removed the thermostat was that water or the coolant that came out?

[@AliGravi89]

i think it was yellow coolant

Did this end up fixing the problem? No sensors replaced

[@AliGravi89]

Yes it solved the problem. No sensor replaced only thermostat

[@josephbujnowski3795]

Do you know what code it brought up?

[@ImPezy]

My 2014 Cadillac is having the same issues as yours. The AC fans on high when the car is on and runs after the car is off for another 5 minutes. Also drove the car on the highway for an hour and coolant temp stayed at Cold never moved. Took it into the dealership and they told me it was p0116 code and the temp sensor and connector is bad, and it’s a $1200 fix. I want to believe it’s just the bad thermostat and replace that and not the sensor. AC AND HEAT BOTH WORK in the car.

My car sometimes goes past the half ways mark then suddenly drops... thermostat and coolants sensors have been replaced I have no clue..

First check the radiator fun is working then Make sure there's no air on coolant if it's OK try to clean the radiator by opening it or use cleaner pot on coolant and flash it

[@gilbertjordan1970]

Does anyone know where the coolant temperature sensor goes???

[@jl456]

Yeah behind the engine on the head

What means you have a bad thermostat even when you turn off the car?

It's mean the thermostat doesn't work properly it's close not open car get overheated . or it open not closing car get cold
