Engine coolant temp sensor fix for 115 code?

[Siizzzoooo]

Just wanted to clarify before I dump some money into an OEM sensor

I got the code 115 (1 slow, 15 fast)

This is for a 96 KA with 90k.

Thanks guys

i believe 18 is the water temp sensor...

isnt 115 nothing for manuals?

for autos, it's auto tranny, 3rd signal..

but i COULD be wrong... anyone else confirm?

[BlackS14]

Indeed....115 is for auto 3rd signal.

according to that FAQ list, it is the engine coolant temp sensor

thats why I was wondering if that was what it was, because I looked on some other FAQs and the 115 was the auto 3rd sensor...which makes no sense since mine is a 5spd

Isn't there an ECU code listing on here somewhere?

[Siizzzoooo]

yeah, but it says its the auto 3rd sensor

im guessing obd2 codes are different or something

[NemeGuero]

Or like everyone else said... it IS the auto sensor.

Codes are different for 95 and 96-98. I'm guessing this is on your 98? Look it up in the FSM, if it's the CTS you'll get a CEL, if it's the auto transmission you'll get a flashing OD off light.

its on his 96 i believe i know its not on his 98 cuz i bought it. but either way 96-98 are both obd 2

[Siizzzoooo]

its an ORIGINAL 5spd!!! lol

and yes a 96 is obd2

the auto 3rd sensor should be ruled out, that's why I am almost certain that the problem lies in the CTS.

The whole point of this thread was to see if everyone else that had this code fixed it the same way, and/or if there was something else that should be looked at instead of the CTS sensor....

[projectRDM]

No. CTS throws a code, that's the problem. I've got a dozen of them, I can send you one if you want. PM me your address again, I lost it.
