Dude nice job. Had this issue this morning. watched. went and bought and had fixed inside an hour. avoiding 250 repair bill - cool. Retaining man card - priceless.

[@davewatkins4966]

Thanks for that. My 2016 Tahoe did the same thing the other night but has not done it since. I am going to change the sensor today. Shop in Winston Salem told my GF that it would be $700 to change sensor and thermostat and the coolant needed flushed. Really ticks me off how they treat women who come in to these "Professional" garages.

[@JoeR-kh2ng]

Very helpful and insightful video. After the watching this video a few times it took me only about an hour to replace the sensor. I removed the air chamber as indicated and it was way easier to maneuver on my 2015 Suburban. Many, many Thanks, God Bless.

[@6starDriver]

Appreciate the feedback, glad the video was helpful. Thanks for watching

[@juliovega3101]

I have a 2018 Tahoe LT with the same problem watching this video made it so easy to fix the problem 👍

[@ThomasSoraci]

Thank you for a video that actually shows where it is and how to get to the sensor. All the other videos I've seen suck and should be taken down lol.

[@johnnyberryman447]

Actually really great video I did it step for step lol…..most the time you click on these videos and all the sudden your looking at a random bolt

[@mikevillanueva1456]

Great video man! Simple and straight to the point. Helped me take care of my issue (15 Suburban). Thank you

[@khaleedevans9334]

Thank you very much bruh ...easy and clear, no better demonstration👍🏿👏🏾👏🏾

[@johnyoung110]

Good looking out. Had the exact same problem. Followed your lead and solved the issue. Appreciate you man

[@PhishPhryPod]

Thank you so much for this! I was able to fix my truck.

[@worldwidewaterskiing]

Perfect video. Thank you. Saved me so much time and probably money at the shop

[@sergiosalinas764]

Awesome video straight to the point. Saved me some money. Thank you 💪🏼💪🏼💯

[@purplespriteman07]

This video helped me out a lot today thank you again for posting

[@user-od2xh1mn7s]

Appreciate you Before watching was about to put my weekend 💰aside for thermostat replacement at the dealership

[@6starDriver]

Dealership bill would’ve been even higher. Glad the video helped out. Thanks for watching & commenting

[@ricklagrone]

Thanks man, that was really fast, I was just a little slower than your awesome and to the point video. Figuring out to squeeze the connector in after popping up the gray larger side of the connector wire was the slowest part for me.

[@elgordito398]

Great video! On point and very helpful! I’d like to see more videos on this truck!

[@PrecisionConstructionCol-jb2fe]

Nice job. Thanks for the help!

[@jamesdavidreeves9611]

Great video No waste in time Thanks Jim

[@JBirdBlackCrow]

Good job Bruh. straight forward and to the point.

[@Here_W3_Go]

Thanks. Changing mine out tomorrow

[@francisdrelling4060]

Thanks for putting out such a great video.

[@stevengentry9752]

Thank you sir. Exactly what I needed to see and do.

Great video. Diggin the backbeats 🎶

[@koreychaney8595]

Nice job. So when you was replacing the sensor and the liquor was coming out what liquid was that and do I have to replenish that liquid once I put the sensor back on

[@smassey969]

It was antifreeze tgematscwasnt enough to be worried abt

[@smassey969]

That wasnt

[@joechandlerjr2246]

Brilliant! Quick & easy!

[@6starDriver]

Thank you

[@biologyguy52]

Exactly what I needed. Thanks!

[@6starDriver]

Thanks for watching and commenting

[@kelleo727]

To prevent all that coolant coming out like that, wait for the engine to cool down. Also its a cheap part, so if your fan is running and your temp is not moving more than likely its the sensor. The thermostat is also cheap and right next to the sensor, this will work a 6.2 also.

[@andreamassingill6132]

Thanks for the tip!!! I was wondering how to avoid that. Also know to be prepared for the grey clip to fly lol

[@vinkobilaver5404]

Do I have to take off battery connections on 2017 Chevy Tahoe

[@mr.b7639]

Thanks bro I needed that! 💪

[@6starDriver]

No problem 👍

[@tobotyy]

Cool video, thanks for the help. 🙌

[@mealbla7097]

Could you get closer for each step to take off the vent

[@ronniehobson7051]

Thanks big homie

[@33736]

Can that be done with a combination wrench?

[@dencmob]

I would like to see more vid thanks

[@ChristinaRodriguez-u2g]

Just changed the sensor step by step. Didn’t work still does the same thing what else should i do?

[@JeffD726]

Lol, I am NOT* mechanically inclined so even the step of pulling off the old sensor after the fluid stopped spraying would have been appreciated! Seemingly pretty straightforward nonetheless. 🙏

[@eighty3boxchevy]

I gotta do mine on the 6.2 this weekend..

[@anthonymaniz1933]

Thank you man

[@danielcarreon3879]

What’s the tightening torch

[@mjsi883]

Good job thanks 👍

[@azfirewiseify]

I’m seeing the thermostat is the culprit. My fan started staying on today. Then check engine light came on. Chevy forum says thermostat

[@jasonliening3550]

Great thank you for the help.

[@mikeclark6431]

Thank you for the info. You are awesome :-)

[@dapops9223]

That little gray clip, anyone know where to get it???

[@chaunceyharvey6625]

THANKS

More on this truck

[@rafaelcheco7160]

I have changed it twice on my 2015 Yukon XL and the same thing with the fan started again yesterday, is there anything else I should try?

[@6starDriver]

Make sure the wires are good and theres antifreeze in the system

[@rafaelcheco7160]

@@6starDriver antifreeze is full and the wires look good to me, I read that after swapping the sensor out I should disconnect the battery so the computer can reset and also that I should change the thermostat as well. What do you think?

[@6starDriver]

@@rafaelcheco7160 if the temperature gauge on the dash is working correctly then you might have some other issues. Fan should only come on when engine starts getting hotter than normal or ac on

[@jeffrogers6065]

I just changed mine and disconnected the battery terminal to reset computer and same shit. Guess it’s on to the thermostat.

[@rafaelcheco7160]

@@jeffrogers6065 I ended up changing both the thermostat and sensor, while battery was disconnected and after I connected everything back it’s all good, working perfectly.

[@emdgmd]

Thank you!!

[@BorisGolub-l2z]

And what if it still keeps running ? Could it be the thermostat then ?

[@6starDriver]

That would be the next step

[@efrainalfaro2426]

Good !!

[@bobcook8576]

Po-128. Change the thermostat. Disconnect battery for 10 minutes. Your done. Move on with your life.

[@JBREgroup]

Great advice - it didn’t read the new sensor and shut off the radiator fan until I did this.

[@angelsosa2084]

@6star what happens

[@natelaning2610]

My 2015 Suburban is doing this exact thing. I'd like to change out the sensor. Anybody have a link or part info to purchase a new sensor?

[@6starDriver]

An Ac Delco one would do from amazon, only $23. If that doesn’t work, then onto the thermostat that i also did a video on

[@08c6vette]

Should have changed the thermostat while you were in there also

[@dapops9223]

It flew out when I changed the sensor
