From my understanding, unless I missed something, there is no low coolant sensor on the Discos, so no code can be set for low coolant.

Slang, I have used the UltraGauge in my D1, my Saturn, my buddies K1500, and a friends KickItAgain. Every time it has accurately given me live data and all codes that were present, as well as allowing me to clear codes.

No no, not low on coolant, low coolant temp.

P0116 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor Falling Temp Fault
P0117 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor Low Out of Range Fault
P0118 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor High Out of Range Fault

Chris-bro...I just can't believe I have only one code per truck. That's insane. I agree the data there looks accurate it's just that I don't know what to do with it. I cleared the check engine and it came back but that's the truck throwin the P1313.

That's what I thought, just wanted to clarify in case I had missed seeing a sensor.

When I first hooked mine up, I had 3 codes. After clearing them, one keeps coming back(can't remember what it is). I verified with other code readers and scanners and get the same results. It doesn't hurt to pick up another code reader if you can spare the cash. Redundancy is not necessarily a bad thing.

I'm going to start putting extra sensors on mine.

Sunshine sensor
Wind velocity sensor
Driving too slow sensor
Water ingress sensor
Oil leak sensor
PS leak sensor

Hmm, we don't get enough sunshine to warrant a sunshine meter.
I need the Driving too slow sensor installed on the other cars on the road.
I think some Oil stopped leaking and PS stopped leaking sensors would be more appropriate.

Yah wife and I went camping last weekend, while driving through the mountains, uphill in 3rd 55mph, about 40 Lamborghini's, Ferraris, Vipers came screaming by. Guess they were having their monthly road run. Bastards, they can go fast but we can go anywhere.

If the UG is only showing one code then there is only one code.
