Greetings everyone. I have a 11/00 VX 3.8l ecotech and am having a few problems related to the cooling system.
My problems began with a blown head gasket which has been repaired. After replacing the head gaskets, I decided to revitalise the cooling system. I replaced all the hoses, the radiator, the thermostat and the radiator cap. Since replacing everything associated with the cooling syste, I have had an issue with the check engine light coming on whenever the temperature gauge gets to just below the half mark. Should I be replacing the temp sensor and the sensor that turns the fans on?
Has anyone had a similar problem and if so what was needed to rectify the problem?
Your help with sorting my cooling system problem will be greatly appreciated.
