Code 6 (ECT) water temp sensor issue... HELP!!!

What does it mean when cel code 6 keeps going on right when I turn the car on after it sitting over night. Before I turn it on I reset the ecu. It will even turn on in the on position without me having to start the car up. I replaced the switch already and it does the same thing. Any help please. Thanks....

Which "switch" - you mean the coolant temp sensor?

when it comes on does it stay on? If so make sure you have your engine harness plug in correctly, if you have a jdm swap you don't need the oil pressure sensor for vtec and you might have that plug into your coolant temp sensor by accident.
