Hey everyone,
Happy New Year! I hope you all enjoyed the holidays
So my baby is fixed in her parking for now my check engine light is on, temperature gauge is not working and I have the “AC OFF” warning..
I connected her to OBD2 scanner and got the P0128 code.. so after googling that indicates the Coolant Temperature Sensor or the Thermostat..
My brother is trying to help me from overseas, as I no longer have anyone to help me with this. (bless him! He’s a car and plane mechanic but we don’t have many Hummers in UK so he is unfamiliar with the engine layout, and he’s obviously not here to look himself lol)
I had a small crack in the top plastic of my radiator so I put some of that temporary sealant in it as it was just before I was due to fly home for Xmas.. so my brother thinks that maybe the sealant goop has got trapped in the thermostat and is holding it open.
Long story short, I have no idea where the thermostat or coolant temperature sensor is on the 5.3L V8 is and I’ve been Googling but I can only find it for the I5 engine
please could someone advise me?
any help will be greatly appreciated!
take care and stay safe!!
