Here is how you can check the codes yourself once the repairs have been done or before.

The first code P0116 Engine Coolant Temperature Circuit Performance looks like the sensor is unplugged or the sensor is shorted. Here is a guide that can help. The other two codes should go out when you fix the coolant sensor issue.

I would flush the cooling system while you are at it.

Please let us know what you find.

Are you having any trouble with the transmission? Is your 4WD working properly? Most likely the transfer case position sensor is bad causing these 2 codes to appear.

I'm not having any trouble with my transmission and the last time I used my 4wd it worked fine. I need to replace my rear u joint which i'm in the process of trying to do. Do the codes have anything to do with that?

If you're working on the vehicle then yes just ignore the engine codes until your done with the repairs. then when finished delete the codes and see if any come back.

Here is how
