What are the reasons for low coolant level?
1 Answers
The reasons for low coolant level include the shutter being stuck in the fully open position; the fan clutch being sintered; and the coolant temperature gauge or sensor malfunctioning. Below are the relevant details: Check the coolant: Determine if the coolant level is below the standard level. If it is lower than the standard level, inspect the cooling system for issues. If the coolant level is normal, check the tightness of the radiator fan and water pump belt, and whether the water pump is functioning properly. If all the above are normal, clean the scale in the radiator and pipes. If none of these are problematic, then inspect the cylinder head gasket for issues. Observe the fan: If the fan starts rotating immediately upon engine startup, it indicates a fault in the electromagnetic coil, temperature sensor, motor, or fan. In such cases, further inspection is required.
