16502 P0118 Engine Coolant Temp.Circ High Input
i replaced my ECT sensor and my leaking coolant expansion tank. if i try to clear the code, it doesn't even go away... coolant temps read normal on cluster and i don't appear to be losing any coolant...
also, when i replaced my dirty yellow tank with the fresh new white one, i notcied there was/ is a hose going from the bottom of the tank to nothing... is this some sort of pcv pressure release valve or something? or should it be plugged in somewhere? (no coolant coming out of it)
im lost guys! please help!

cleared with an obd2 tool and it doesn't clear.
i also ran vag but haven't tried to clear it with that.
what's the after-run thermo switch?
TIA
