The thermostat of the Chery Tiggo 3 is located at the upper water outlet of the engine. A car thermostat is a valve that controls the flow path of engine coolant. It automatically adjusts the amount of water entering the radiator based on the coolant temperature to ensure the engine operates within an appropriate temperature range, which helps save energy consumption. Below are the steps for replacing the thermostat: 1. Turn off the engine and open the front hood. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to prevent the electric fan from suddenly operating during the work, which could cause personal injury; 2. Remove the plastic cover outside the timing belt. The position of the generator may affect the thermostat replacement, so the generator assembly needs to be removed. Place a water collection tray under the car and prepare to remove the water pipe; 3. After removing the lower water pipe, the antifreeze will gush out, so be careful to avoid burns. At this point, the thermostat itself can be seen. Remove the faulty thermostat; 4. Install the new thermostat. After installation, apply a layer of sealant to the water pipe area to prevent water leakage.
