P0118:
Engine Coolant Temp. Circuit High Input.
Pulled that off my 99 (along with some O2 codes I knew about).
I googled a bit, and it would seem there are other sensors, TPS, IAT, MAP, and the ECT all on the same circuit. I've cleaned all the connections on the others. But does my 99 have a seperate ECT for the guage? Or just the one on the therm housing?

On the CEL code. I haven't pulled it to see if it went away yet, but are there seperate codes for the different sensors on the circuit? Or could a fault in wiring/sensor trigger a code on any one of them?

Thanks salad. You have made a lot electrical jargon easy for me to understand.
I'll have to check and see if it cleard, I cleaned out the connectors.
I've had an issue with surging after start up and some wonky idiling, the surging has been gone since cleaning the TB again. The occasional wonky idle at start up is still there though. I didn't know if a fault in the circuit could cause problems with other sensors on same circuit.

i have this rattling sound coming from my center console. its right near the shifter and t case shifter. i dont think its my transmission becauase i cant hear it from under the jeep and it shifts perfect through all gears. is there a common part that breaks in that area that would cause the rattling. its only when im stopped that i can hear it.
