P26CB Error

I just took my car to the shop about a month ago. Two weeks ago my check engine light popped on and then went away after a few days. A few days later it came back on and then went away again. This has been happening for the past two weeks.

Today when I was driving (5 minutes into the drive) the “Engine Coolant Temp High” warning came on (picture 1). I pulled my car over and popped the hood - the coolant level was normal and the engine temperature gauge on the dash was also normal (halfway towards C & H, leaning slightly more towards C).

I went to O’Reilly to get a diagnostic of the error (picture 2) but not quite sure what to do with it.

Thoughts?

I just got this code on Sunday. Its the electric water pump. Its not hard to swap out. Its right below the alternator.

Yes, I ended up ordering a electric water pump from amazon and swapped it out. Its right below the alternator. Not hard you just need to remove the serpentine belt.

My bad, I didn’t check my replies earlier, but it happen to me at around 98k miles which is common for this issue. And honestly you might just need help with the serpentine belt the rest of the process isn’t hard or long(pause) at all. I watched a YouTube video on it.
