Coolant Level Indicator Lamp: Description and Operation
Coolant warning light in instrument cluster
Note:
In order to prevent excessive engine coolant temperature, make sure that the cooling-air ducts are not obstructed by coverings (e.g. films, stone
shields). Leaves and insects on the radiator/condenser fins can be vacuumed off or removed using a high-pressure cleaner.
Four functions of the coolant warning light:
1. Engine coolant level too low
-
light flashes slowly
(0.5 Hz)
2. Engine compartment temperature too high
-
light flashes slowly
(0.5 Hz)
(engine compartment blower might be faulty)
3. Engine coolant temperature too high
-
light is lit; pointer on the right
4. Temperature sensor at water outlet faulty
-
light flashes rapidly
(1 Hz)
; pointer on the right
Note:
The temperature warning in point three is indicated if the conditions "engine coolant temperature too high" and "engine coolant level too low"
are present simultaneously.
