Default Engine Coolant Temp Sensor code P0118

I got a CEL the other day. Comes on most of the time and goes off every now and then.

The code reads:
16502 - Engine Coolant Temp. Sensor (G62):Signal too High
P0118 - 35 - 10---Intermittent


Does anyone know what's the problem? I'm assume it just a bad sensor and I should just repalce it?

Default Which sensor is this?

I've replaced both coolant temp sensors... one behind the pass side head, and the other at the lower radiator hose, pass side, accessible from under the vehicle.


Hints to install - when you purchase the new sensor, make sure you get a new plastic clip and a new o ring, and make sure the old o ring comes out before installation.

Default Are these the green top ones??

Every now and then, my temp gage reads nothing when I'm driving. I'm guessing that the sensor is going bad. But I'm not getting a CEL.
