Symptoms of a Faulty Thermostat

A stuck or failing thermostat disrupts the entire engine cooling process. If it is stuck closed, your engine will quickly overheat, which can cause severe engine damage. If it is stuck open, the engine will run too cold, resulting in a lack of heat from your cabin heater, poor fuel economy, and an illuminated Check Engine Light on your dashboard.

Safety Equipment and Precautions

Always prioritize safety when working on your vehicle. Make sure to wear proper protective gloves and safety glasses to shield yourself from debris and hot engine coolant, which can cause severe burns. Never open a hot cooling system—always wait until the engine is completely cold before starting, stay focused, and remain highly attentive to your surroundings.
