This may be a potential explanation if all systems seem to check out.

my stat isn't cold it is 190. my fan settings are stock and my engine heats up fast. i appreciate the feedback though. i had the code deleted and went into walmart for a short time. when i came out it threw the code again right away and the engine was still warm at that point. that is what is also making me lean to a bad sensor but i could be wrong.
