1996 coolant code
Hello, I have a 1996 accord coupe 2.2 5 speed with 192k miles, recently I changed the thermostat and coolant and about a day after that the car seemed to hiccup when I started it and the check engine light came on. I took the car to Auto Zone to have it scanned and it came up with what looked like a code 0118," coolant recirculation to high" was what I was told. I did use an OE Honda thermostat, could it be i was given the wrong thermostat?
I tried using the search feature and got nothing.[&o]
Thank you for any help anyone can lend.

RE: 1996 coolant code
P0118 - ECT High Input. Engine Coolant Temp sensor is supply a false high input to the ECU. This could mean the ECT sensor is failed open, disconnected, or a wiring break. When you replaced the thermostat you may have accidentally disconnected the ECT. Thermostat replacement is not likely cause of this fault, except perhaps indirectly.
good luck
