Adjusting the coolant temperature gauge
|
The coolant temperature gauge scale is divided into 5 fixed “breakpoints”, of which 3 are adjustable.
•
|
Low-temp High: Breakpoint at which the gauge needle leaves the “blue” zone (Factory setting: 50°C).
|
•
|
Horizontal Low-temp: Breakpoint when the gauge needle is in the horizontal position (factory setting: 80°C).
|
•
|
Horizontal High-temp: Breakpoint at which the gauge needle leaves the horizontal position (factor setting: 115°C).
|
•
|
High-temp Low: Breakpoint at which the gauge needle enters the “red” zone (factory setting: 129°C).
|
There are two possibilities of adjusting the coolant temperature readings, depending on the fault symptoms:
1.
|
Coolant temperature corresponding to the fixed breakpoints can be adjusted.
|
2.
|
The horizontal breakpoint (gauge reading with engine at operating temperature) can be moved up or down.
|
Adjustment can be checked afterwards by activating Night Panel with the diagnostic tool.
