My Winter Car: Theromostat Issue (Fix)

Short answer

Just to be clear, you equipped the screwdriver and right-clicked the thermostat, right? This has worked for me.

How to fix it

  1. Make sure you have equipped the screwdriver, as this is necessary to remove the thermostat.
  2. Right-click the thermostat to try and remove it. This method has worked for other players.
  3. If the above step doesn't work, try pressing Q to get closer to the part and then spam right-click to see if that resolves the issue.
  4. Check if you have installed the alternator, as it has a bolt that holds both the thermostat and its housing, which might be causing the problem.

If it still doesn't work

  • You can try reaching as close as possible to the part in question and spamming right-click, as this has helped other players in similar situations.
  • If none of the above steps work, you might need to use the MWCeditor to fix the issue, as it can provide more advanced solutions to problems like this.

Uhm... you probably already tried this, but, press Q and try to reach as close as possible to the part in question and spam RMB. Whenever stuff like this happens to me this tends to work. EDIT: This guy had the same issue several months a go and solved by this method I say. If still this doesn't work maybe only MWCeditor itself can help you.
