Can coolant cause engine light come?
Low coolant in the radiator of your car can trigger the malfunction illumination light (MIL), also known as the “check engine” light. Low coolant can affect the internal temperature of the engine, which is protected by the antifreeze.
Is inverter coolant same as engine coolant?
Yes, it’s the same coolant in both the engine and the inverter. As part of the cooling system, the inverter coolant pump translates high-voltage direct current generated by hybrid batteries into alternating current for the motor to keep the system at the proper operating temperature.
What is an inverter coolant pump?
As part of the cooling system, the inverter coolant pump translates high-voltage direct current generated by hybrid batteries into alternating current for the motor to keep the system at the proper operating temperature.
When to replace engine and inverter coolant?
IIRC the shop manual has a procedure for bleeding the inverter which involves a bleed screw and cycling the inverter pump to remove the air pockets. Inverter coolant serves as a lubricant for the pump, a likely factor in pump longevity.
Can a power inverter pump fail on a check engine?
