Error code 14

[etsad]

Hi all, replaced engine and I got the check engine light on after 5min of operation. Car runs good 'cept for a "hunting" idle after the engine is warmed up. Error code 14 is for the 'Coolant Temperature Sensor circuit. High temperature indicated.'
huh?????
I haven't had the car over heat. in fact the temp gauge always is on the cold side of middle.

Couple of questions. 1 where is the blasted thing? 2 what does it do?

does this affect my hunting idle?
Thanks for the help/insite

its screwed into the upper side of the throttle body under the air cleaner housing, look for 2 small water hoses that go the the throttle body, sensor is between them. if it goes bad the idle will cycle up and down

How may wires are there?
I have a sensor under ther air cleaner as discribed AND I have a sensor next to a small water line 3/8" od from intake to throttle body.

the sensor in the intake does not have a wire connected and I cannot locate one either.

Could you provide a pic? email to [email protected]
Thanks for the help. I DO appreciate it!

its in the throttle body assembley, not the intake manifold, has 2 wires going to it. the one that has no wire going to it in side of intake is mostly for automatic cars

Thanks again
