  • Опубликовано: 4 апр 2020
  • A common problem on this year range Buick Enclave is a failed coolant temp sensor making the computer think the engine is overheating, causing the "Engine Hot A/C Off" Message and constant High Speed Cooling Fan operation. The fix for this issue is to simply replace the coolant temp sensor. In this video, I'll walk you through the steps to replacing it as quickly, and easily as possible.

    I just want to say I can’t really do much with cars other then oil change and change tire but thanks to this video I diagnosed the problem and fixed it myself in 20 minutes. Big thank you great video. Now if I can find a place to fix my timing chain for less then 3500

      @@adam8323Agreed, it’s not that it’s not a pain in the arse to do because it’s annoying but it’s simple and annoying. I have to do this and ordered the coolant temperature sensor today. I tested removing the connector and it’s on there as if glued on. If I can’t get some long pliers to push done the connector lever, I am going to use that technique. Looks hard too but doable. What a well explained and well shot video. Sometimes you don’t have the facility to get all the video shots you want but well done, nonetheless.

      @nivekoch 3 дня назад

      It’s for bolts that are longer, not nuts that are longer. The bolt goes through the center so the deep well sockets make that possible
