How do I fix code p1299?

Some of the possible fixes are:

1. Thermostat replacement.
2. Refilling of engine coolant.
3. Replacement of cylinder head temperature sensor.
4. Repair or replacement of open or shorted cylinder head temperature sensor.
5. Repair or replacement of poor electrical connection in cylinder head temperature sensor.

Where is the cylinder head temperature sensor located?

The Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor is located on the back of the right cylinder head and is integral with the ECT sensor.

What does cylinder head over temperature mean?

Definition. Engine overheat condition is determined by the Cylinder Head Over Temperature sensor. An overheat condition means the temperature gauge reads temperature that is higher than normal or more than the allowable temperature for the engine to function properly.

How does a CHT sensor work?

A basic description of the sensor is that it is a thermistor device in which resistance changes with temperature. As the temperature increases the resistance decreases causing a voltage drop to occur on the 5 volts signal wire. The PCM receives the various voltage signals and equates it to a temperature value.

Is the coolant temperature sensor?

The coolant temperature sensor, also known as the coolant temperature switch, is an engine management system sensor that is used to monitor the temperature of the engine’s coolant. Most coolant temperature sensors operate using electrical resistance to measure the temperature of the coolant.

How do I know if I have a bad cylinder head?

What Are The Symptoms of Cylinder Head Failure?

1. Drop in coolant levels.
2. Drop in oil levels.
3. Drop in engine performance.
4. Smoke coming out of the exhaust.

How do I know if my cylinder head temperature sensor is bad?

Signs that indicate you need a cylinder head temperature sensor replacement include:

1. You have trouble accelerating while driving your vehicle.
2. The engine stalls when you start it cold.
3. The idle speed stays low when the engine is cold.
4. There is a long cranking time when you start your vehicle.
