What does it mean when the radiator warning light comes on?
1 Answers
Under normal circumstances, the temperature of the radiator fluctuates around 90 degrees Celsius. If the car's radiator temperature becomes too high, the coolant temperature warning light will illuminate. Below is detailed information about car radiators: 1. Cleaning the car radiator: Modern engines operate at higher temperatures than older models. This is due to enhanced emission control systems, as well as reduced sizes of radiators, engine compartments, and grille areas. Therefore, the car's radiator cooling system should be cleaned once a year to maximize the lifespan of the radiator. 2. Car cooling system: The primary function of the cooling system is to dissipate heat into the air to prevent engine overheating, but the cooling system also serves other important purposes. A car's engine performs best when operating at the proper high temperature.
