TECHNICIAN FIRST VISUALLY INSPECTED COOLING SYSTEM FOR OBVIOUS SIGNS OF A FAULT, THE SYSTEM LOOKS GOOD. TECHNICIAN RAN A DIAGNOSTIC ON CODE P012F AND VERIFIED THE ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR IS READING ACCURATELY ALSO MEANING ALL OF ITS CONNECTIONS AND SIGNALS ARE CORRECT, AND THE SAME GOES FOR THE OIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR.
