Reset code P0128 after changing thermostat
Check engine light came on and went to Auto Zone and their reader showed a code P0128. Coolant sensor was replaced 7000 miles ago as was the thermostat. I decided to just replace thermostat with a Fail-Safe one. Hope more expensive really means better. Will the P 0128 code clear itself or does it ha...

Guess I missed the arrow when my old body was trying to move around down there. Thanks so much, was quite obvious after all.
I had little patience this morning with the cold NW wind blowing up my back.
Thanks again,
Bob

Re: Check engine light on after almost running out of gas
Thank you for your advise. I had a family health problem and don't think I've been on the site since that post. I will pick up a reader and certainly won't run low on fuel again.

Check engine light on after almost running out of gas
Wasn't paying attention and realized I was running out of gas when I felt car sputtering. After I got gas it took about 1/4 mile for it to stop sputtering. I then noticed the check engine light was on. Pulled over a couple of minutes later and shut off the car and let it cool down. After starting th...

Cooling Fan V40
Is it normal for a cooling fan not continue to run after motor has been turned off?
Fan had been running just before motor was turned off.

Noisey fuel pump
I noticed a high pitch whine from the fuel pump on a V40 that I just picked up.
Is this the normal sound that the pump makes or does this indicate it's failing ?
