Code P2185 (Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor 2 - High circuit High) Codes P2418 (Evaporative Emission System Switching Valve Control/Open) Code P2400 (Evaporative Emission System Leak Detection Pump Control - Circuit/Open) Can someone please point me in the right direction to the location of the sensors and explain the problem a bit so I can replace it? Thank you in advance!
coolant sensor is at the oil/water pump, somewhere under the engine, at the RH, inner, you can use the oil filter as a basic navigator ----- #30 in the pic below Image Unavailable, Please Login evap valve is at LH of the engine bay , towards the rear, #18, maybe even #11, or #8. Anything with a connector ( no connector = no code, general rule of thumb) Image Unavailable, Please Login
note that coolant sensor picture has 2x #30. my experience is that usually the #18 in evap diagram went wrong.( 2 times during my tenure). It can be tested by removing it, clean it, and blow it using your mouth ( if you aren't ocd hygene-ist) just a basic guide... not an expert, not a 100% correct evaluation of your problem.
Thanks I appreciate you taking the time to reply in such detail. Do you happen to know which #30 is is number 2?
ha? The coolant temp sensor? Should be the top one on the diagram. Ferrari diagrams are sometimes confusing. So take it with a grain of salt. once you spot the part, see if it is inserted to coolant passages, that's the best way of determining it.
F430 has 2 coolant sensors one near the crankcase and another one deep down have to remove undercover to access. But I have no clue which is which so I'll try unplugging one and see which is number 2 since it says number 2 is stuffed
wait, what is "stuffed"? who said that? ="sleepinglh, post: 147160766, member: 181847"]F430 has 2 coolant sensors one near the crankcase and another one deep down have to remove undercover to access.

I see. Couldn't help more from this point. THe sensor is only like $20, so I guess its not too much of an expense to try. My code reader shows coolant sensor #2 is broken[/QUOTE]
