I have an 89 lxi and the ecu flashes 6 times. I think it has to do with the fuel sysytem since I just changed my filter. Please help thanks.

engine coolant temp sensor
Would this failed sensor have anything to do with my cooling fan coming on at odd times like 2 hours after the car has been parked? Is it pretty easy to replace?
no idea man...I own a prelude...I dont have the same car....just the same engine!
wait a sec....it is easy...I know where it is...its on the thermo housing I THINK!
One bolt is comes out.....screw the new one it and hook it up
Good to go!
it is on the thermostat housing and it takes a 17mm deep socket to remove it I believe. And no its doesn't have anything to do with your fans. I beleive on the 88-89's there are 2 sensors for the fans, there is one in the bottom of the radiator and another in the thermostat housing but I'm not totally for sure on that one since I'm still waiting on my electrical service manual. I think thats the one that lets the fan run for so many minutes after the car shuts down if the temps above a certain point. Anyways back to the point. A bad Coolant temp sensor is more of an idling, stalling not starting type problem. HEres a link for ya to read
