I have a code p0115

Good morning,

Can you verify the code? There is no 115 code listed.

What has been done so far?

Hi, it's for P0118 I believe. my steering locked up while driving then, smoke from the hood, my gauge thermostat was at H. My car doesn't run even with a jump.

P0118

General Description

The Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor (ECTS) is located in the engine coolant passage of the cylinder head for detecting the engine coolant temperature. The ECTS uses a thermistor whose resistance changes with the temperature. The electrical resistance of the ECTS decreases as the temperature increases, and increases as the temperature decreases. The reference 5 V in the ECM is supplied to the ECTS via a resistor in the ECM. That is, the resistor in the ECM and the thermistor in the ECTS are connected in series. When the resistance value of the thermistor in the ECTS changes according to the engine coolant temperature, the output voltage also changes.During cold engine operation the ECM increases the fuel injection duration and controls the ignition timing using the information of engine coolant temperature to avoid engine stalling and improve drivability.

DTC Description

ECM sets DTC P0118 if the ECM detects signal voltage higher than the possible range of a properly operating ECTS.

Okay, thank you. What needs to be repaired and what will be the estimate?

A diagnostic needs to be done. Once the failure is determined, then an estimate can be created.

Right now, no estimate can be prepared.

Let us know the failure then we can talk about money.
