    Hey all. I've been searching around but can't find the same issue P0128 I'm having:

    When the weather cools I start throwing a P0128 code. It happens when I first start the car, not after 10 minutes of running. Car runs fine the entire time. I have a 180T non-drilled and have replaced it with another 180T non-drilled, reset the code, and it still comes back on. Suggestions?

    put the 195 back in?

    have you changed the temp sensor or checked the wires leading to it? its got a short harness too, so 2 plugs to check and clean.

    theres one in the rad too, but its the low coolant sensor.
