My 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee's check engine light came on 2 weeks ago the same
day the motor for my driver side window died. I took the car in and had the
window motor replaced & a temp coolant switch replaced. Since then the check
engine light came back on & after having the codes read - the verdict is
"engine coolant temp circuit low" - the check gauges light then came on the
next day and the temp gauge reads anywhere from 100-240 and hits the red line
at least 1 time per car trip over the last few days. This is still happening
after replacing the thermostat 2 days ago. Im at a loss for what to "fix"
next to get this resolved. The car seems to be running fine- but it really
freaks me out when the temp gauge goes crazy and my check engine/gauges light
comes on.
The Jeep has 67000 miles on it -
any advice?

Yeah, go out this morning, before  you start the thing and check the
coolant level in the radiator(not the overflow jug).  
Bet you've got some air trapped in there from when you replaced the
t/stat.
