A thermostat is a heat operated device designed to control temperature or provide a safety cut-off
Yes. The homophone for thermostat is "thermostate."
The red button on a thermostat is often a reset button. Pressing it will reset the thermostat to its default settings. This can be helpful if the thermostat is not functioning properly or if you need to start over with the programming.
If there is no thermostat in the radiator, the coolant can flow too quickly through the system and fail to properly regulate the temperature. This can cause the coolant to boil over and be expelled from the radiator. Installing a thermostat can help control the flow of coolant and prevent overheating.
The wax or gas element inside the thermostat expands in response to the increasing engine temperature, causing the thermostat to open and allow coolant flow to regulate the engine temperature.
Thermal expansion applies to a thermostat because as the temperature changes, the materials in the thermostat will expand or contract. This change in size is measured to determine when the desired temperature has been reached, triggering the thermostat to turn on or off the heating or cooling system.
"COOLANT THERMOSTAT" -COOLANT TEMP BELOW THERMOSTAT TEMPERATURE
There is supposed to be an engine thermostat . Do you mean that someone has removed the engine thermostat ? What year of Ford Ranger and what year ?
Thermostat
Depends on what you mean. If you mean "What happens when I change the thermostat setting", then the answer is that the room (or house, or apartment) gets warmer or cooler. But if you mean "What happens when I change from a mechanical to an electronic thermostat" then the answer is that it is less sensitive to position and orientation, and it may also be programmable, operated from a remote control, or even operated over the Internet.
if you mean the gasket between the thermostat housing and the hose connection bell yes you do but you should use a thermostat to keep the engine at constant operating temperature for which it was designed it will run more efficiently and last longer
If, by "thermostat" you mean the radiator flow valve that controls engine coolant temperature, yes. All liquid cooled engines need such a thermostat.
Trouble code P0128 means:Coolant thermostat (coolant temp below thermostat regulating temp)
P0128 is thermostat malfunction. The thermostat needs replaced.
Trouble code P0128 means:Coolant thermostat (coolant temp below thermostat regulating temp)
Assuming you mean a 2001 Taurus, original equipment would be a 195 degree F thermostat.
Out of Limit - probably needs resetting
I think you meant P0128, which is a thermostat malfunction.
