Engine Coolant Flow Low/Performance

Descripción

This code indicates that the engine's computer has detected a problem with the flow of coolant through the engine. It suggests that either the coolant isn't circulating properly or the system isn't performing as expected, which can lead to overheating.

Pasos de reparación

1. 1 Check coolant level in the reservoir and radiator when the engine is cool, and top off if low with the manufacturer-recommended coolant.
2. 2 Inspect the cooling system for visible coolant leaks at hoses, connections, the water pump, and the radiator.
3. 3 Bleed the cooling system to remove any trapped air pockets that may be restricting coolant flow.
4. 4 Inspect the thermostat for proper operation and replace it if it is stuck closed or not opening at the correct temperature.
5. 5 Inspect the radiator and cooling passages for clogs or blockages, and flush the cooling system if buildup or debris is found.
6. 6 Replace the water pump if it is failing, leaking, or not circulating coolant properly.
7. 7 Replace the radiator if it is severely clogged, damaged, or cannot be restored by flushing.
