Lets cross our fingers that replacing these two really fixed the issue so far so good. Code cleared car running fine also FYI the scan tool still shows permanent code p1299 but from what I read online some codes will not be removed until the engine collects enough data to clear the code. The coolant level sensor or collant temp sensor could be bad. You can try tapping on the resevior and see if sensor comes free and light stays off. The Cylinder head sensor needs a big Socket to remove it as it has about 3 groves where it screws in but just FYI its not really that tight it continues to spin not sure how it keeps the fluid in the engine but after the repair no leaks. You may have a bad sensor in the resevior. Just FYI the Low Coolant Sensor has a Metal Retainer Clip that holds it in nothing more no socket needed. We spent the day Sunday taking apart the Air Cleaner assembly in order to get to both and I paid $59 for AlldataDIY to see how to remove them which was a waste seeing all it does is show you pictures doesn't say anything about how they are connected to the car. I decided to just change both seeing they are near each other and only cost about $60 for both. I get my scanner out and sure enough p1299 so I found people talking about both the Low Coolant Sensor an the Cylinder Head Sensor. If its low, you may want to also check for a possible leak.

When I say exactly I mean exactly wife had low coolant then on Saturday we got a snow storm in VA and she remote started the vehicle which he never does and sure enough she goes out to leave and it has the same alert Engine Overheat shut down engine. Hello, if the coolant is not low after checking the reservoir but the light is on, you could have a sensor concern. My coolant level is REALLY low in my 2014 Escape SE 1.6L FWD. Today she remote started the vehicle and now on the screen is Engie Overheat Shut Down Engine - Cars in Limp Mode. 1 Week ago wife received low coolant light so I filled it up. The user had the exact same issue as follows. I googled this P1299 an found exactly what happened to my wife's 2014 Ford Escape Titanium AWD 1.6 EcoBoost. 1.6l ecoboost 2013 2013 escape 2013 escape se 2013 escape sel 2013 ford escape coolant coolant leak coolant level warning coolant link limp mode.
