In this video we walk through the OEM steps to replace the engine coolant temp sensor on a 2016 GMC Acadia with a P0119 code on a GM 3.6 engine. We also briefly talk about another common issue where a portion of the wiring harness melts and causes the service engine light for P0119. This process is the same for various other GM vehicles with the GM 3.6 engine including: Buick Enclave and Lacrosse, Chevy Traverse, GMC Terrain and many other models!
