2007 fusion sel 4 cylinder w/ 281k miles. 90% of the time when I start my car, the thermostat/climate controls are turned off instead of being at the settings I used last. I’ve googled this issue a dozen times and it’s always pages of other issues with thermostats. Everything works fine when I turn it on. My car just doesn’t “remember” and has it off upon start up. Recently replaced the blower motor and resistor for other reasons. Issue still there -
Hello All, Recently had my thermostat read out shut down on me when driving home from a work trip. Immediately pulled over to ensure I was not overheating and when turning the car back on the read out turns back on. The car is not overheating currently as on occasion the thermostat will turn back on when operating and will be at a normal operating temp. I have also shut down the car at lights and when restarting the temp gauge will turn on and reflect proper operating temps for at least a couple of seconds. Pulled the code and confirmed it was P1289 a head temp circuit. Have not recently done any work on the car so it is unlikely it was unlodged by my maintanance. When the temp readout ceases functioning the AC also stops blowing cold. Any thoughts to addressing this? Their do not appear to be any functional issues with the car (beyond the sensor) at this time. Looks like the temp sensor is pretty cheap. Doing some googling to find the location and replacement process. 2.5L Manual Tranmsission 2010. Thank you for reading. -
Hi all, So I went about replacing the thermostat on a 2006 Ford Fusion I4. It took me awhile but I was able to get everything back together in one piece. I had the Battery disconnected during the repair. However, when I reconnected the battery and turned the car on the Orange Wrench light came on in the dash and the car would not respond to the throttle at all. I couldn't get the engine to rev past 1000 RPM. I attempted the ECU relearn procedure in the manual, by letting it idle, then putting A/C on and then driving it around the cul-de-sac however still nothing out of the throttle, It won't stall the engine but it won't rev past 1000 RPM. My hope is that some one on the thread could suggest some common things I might have accidently knocked off or disconnected in my attempt at getting the thermostat repaired. I haven't been able to get the new Error Codes via OBD II but if I can't get this figured out I'll be doing that on Tuesday. I would just note I'm assuming that there was either some connector or some process I didn't follow, or some extra secret step I need to do that I'm not aware of after replacing the Thermostat. I only disconnected one electrical cable during the repair, and I did double check that it was properly plugged back in. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Also, please note the wrench was not on prior to the repair work. Thanks!
