2017 Pacifica vehicle temperature gauge disappears during driving and check engine light on. had it diagnose and advice to change the coolant sensor. Sensor was replaced and temperature gauge still disappears during driving phase. It is not overheating and no sign of coolant leaks. coolant dispenser still shows no lost of coolant.

Yep, I have seen the cluster cause this when it is going out, I would get a rebuilt unit and install it, this is a 2016 correct? Here is how to remove the instrument cluster. If we could get the code numbers it would help as well. Let me know what happens.
