Fixing P0128 on My 2017 Jeep Wrangler — EASY Thermostat Replacement!

What happens here

Next, locate and remove the air intake system to expose the thermostat housing. Loosen the two hose clamps that secure the air intake tubes using a flathead screwdriver. Then, use a 10mm socket wrench to remove the two 10mm bolts holding the air intake box to the radiator support. Disconnect the electrical connector attached to the air intake. Once all fastenings are removed, carefully detach and lift the entire air intake assembly out of the engine bay, placing it aside. Be cautious not to drop any bolts or tools into the engine bay.

Goal: Clear access to the thermostat by removing the air intake components.

This right here is our thermostat. See if I can get you guys in there a little closer. Right there is our thermostat. So, we got one bolt here, one bolt here, hose here, hose here. So, now we're going to drain the system. All right. In order to drain the radiator, you got to crawl under the Jeep. You see that little dial right there? What the pliers? That dial. So, that's got to get turned. This is the front of the Jeep. This way. So, this dial right here has got to get turned counterclockwise to open. I'm going to spray some WD40 in the bottom of this hole right here. I'm going to turn this counterclockwise and we're going to drain some coolant out. All right. Not going to film it cuz I'm really uncomfortable and I don't know how to get a good angle. So, if MaxJacks wants to send me a lift, hit me up. All right. So, I took this stupid brush guard off.
