Never mind this is one overheat code: Nope no plugged exhaust as part of the
concern....
P0116 - Engine Coolant Temperature Circuit Range/Performance Failure
Indicates the engine coolant temperature rationality test has failed. The PCM
logic that sets this DTC indicates that engine coolant temperature sensor (ECT
or CHT) drifted higher than the nominal sensor calibration curve and could
prevent one or more OBD monitors from executing.
The PCM runs this logic after an engine off "calibrated soak period
(typically 6 hours). This soak period allows the Intake Air Temperature (IAT)
and engine coolant temperature (CHTor ECT) to stabilize and not differ by more
than a calibrated value. DTC P0116 is set when all of the following conditions
are met:
a.. Engine coolant temperature at engine start exceeds IAT at engine
start by more than a calibrated value, typically 30°F (1°C).
b.. Engine coolant temperature exceeds a calibrated value, typically
225°F (107°C).
c.. The Fuel, Heated Oxygen Sensor, Catalyst and Misfire monitors have
not completed.
d.. Calibrated timer to set DTC P0116 has expired.
a.. Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) or Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT)
sensor
b.. Coolant System Concern
Ensure IAT and engine coolant temperature are similar when engine is cold.
Also ensure engine coolant temperature sensor (ECT or CHT) and actual engine
operating temperature are the same.
