I have a 2006 Lincoln LS, I've owned it for about 4 years now and have loved it and treated like my child. That being said I have put some time and money into keeping it running...still love it though..
... Recently had a problem with overheating (on the interstate w/ no a/c on). Pulled a code P1299 (Indicates an engine overheat condition was detected by the cylinder head temperature (CHT) sensor. An FMEM strategy called Fail-safe Cooling was activated to cool the engine.) Replaced the heater control valve 4-5 months ago. Cooling fan only seems to kick on when a/c is running.. checked relays and all seem to be fine. Could it be the cylinder head temp sensor itself? Any other ideas?
Any help would be greatly appreciated..Thanks
