What is the solution for false high temperature in cars?
1 Answers
False high temperature in cars can be resolved by replacing the thermostat. False high temperature refers to a situation where the coolant temperature is not high, but the gauge indicates a high temperature. The function of the thermostat is to automatically adjust the amount of water entering the radiator based on the temperature of the coolant, changing the circulation range of the water to regulate the cooling system's heat dissipation capacity, ensuring the engine operates within an appropriate temperature range. Methods to determine if the thermostat is damaged include: 1. After starting the engine, open the filler cap of the coolant reservoir and observe if there is any water flow inside. If there is no flow, it indicates that the thermostat is damaged or there is debris stuck between the main valve switches. 2. After starting the engine, feel the upper and lower radiator hoses. If their temperatures are the same, it means the thermostat is damaged.
