I have a 08 impala and my engine hot a/c off pops up but my engine light is on also car is not overheating coolant is at regular level engine light Been on for a day can you please help thanks
Do you know if it was the thermostat or what caused it?
Unplug battery for a few mins then reconnect battery start car everything is back to nomale all gauges will read correctly
Won't pass emissions
I read that it was a censor
Changed sensor didn't help. I don't understand how it could be the thermostat when the engine is cold. If I set my heater to high and heater fan to high and keep driving code disappears. 2007 GMC Sierra.
My GMC acadia 2013 is overheat the water it's fine and it says engine a/c off what can be the problem
Engine is not hot the ac off it is over engine inverted heting
My a/c n temp gauge goes up every 20 min after i start the car up but runs then starts to over heat after i drive n 30 min
Disconnect the battery for 3 minutes. Re-connect. Everything will be be fine, until it happens again. I may happen again in a few weeks, or not at all. You'd think there would be some kind of permanent fix, but I have not heard of anything. It's a glitch in the ecm that cause it.

I noticed that my instrument lights go out often when one of these other warnings pop up. I'm curious to whether it may actually be caused by a power supply issue or something in the wiring harness or the vehicles computer itself. I even have a service airbag light that will come on for a month then go back off plus my traction control system will indicate service needed but then go back off and not come back on for weeks. Now the 2 newest things to go wonky are my low oil pressure warning came on twice, 3weeks apart.. my oil was fine. Not any ping ,knock, leaks etc. Then a few days ago my engine hot turn a/c off displayed and my temp gauge is staying on C.. the car wasn't hot, antifreeze is good at at correct level. The a/c wasn't on in the first place because it was 25 degrees out. Then my amber engine light pops on. I'm about to go disconnect the battery. My engine is solid.. it's gotta be something in the computer relays or something with the power supply. I know when a alternator goes.. everything will throw codes soooo that's why I was thinking power supply issue.

2013 chevy impala ltz engine hot A/C Off came on whats going on
Unhook the battery for about 5 minutes, then connect it back up. Computer will reset, and all will be fine -- until next time, which could be months, or years.
