This is what i found on the code.

" Possible causes:
* Faulty Radiator Coolant Temperature Sensor
* Radiator Coolant Temperature Sensor harness is open or shorted
* Radiator Coolant Temperature Sensor circuit poor electrical connection

P00B6 Description The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor (Radiator Coolant Temperature (RCT) Sensor) is a variable resistor that measures the temperature of the engine coolant in the radiator. The Engine Control Module (ECM) monitors the Radiator Coolant Temperature Sensor signal. The ECM sets the OBDII code when the Radiator Coolant Temperature Sensor is out of factory specifications.

Common Problems That Trigger the P00B6 Code

Might just be a wiring/harness issue or dirty connections. Not sure, hope this helps point you in the right direction. :sadbanana:
