Car Question

[Bundy]

Hi guys,

My Isuzu KB200i Fleetside started beeping at me a while ago with the battery warning light coming on on the dashboard. (the beeping sounds like a heavy vehicle reversing!)
I checked my manual and it said either the battery or the alternator are faulty. Both were checked and everything is fine. Battery 100% and alternator charging at the correct rate...
I took off my cubbyhole compartment to locate the source of the "beeping" which on the irritation scale, is about a 9.5... and discovered that the unit emminating this sound is a little electronic unit called the "Coolant Module"... does anyone have any idea what this module does? Engine temp normal and coolant level is right...I cant find any reference to it in the manual at all.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

On top of your radiator on the left hand side(if you stand in front of the vehicle facing the engine) is a sensor which monitors the coolant level. This sensor should have been placed lower, but all you do is bridge the two wires and wolla!

Yes, bridge the 2 wires that goes into the harness from the sensor, but then you have to regulary check the coolant level. Like you would your oil level.

Hope that 9.5 comes down to 0 on the irritation scale.

Wires bridged...problem solved.

Irritation Level now normal.

What.... you dont think I've got enough issues Rhodie??

Nah...I love Ipoopoo's, they are the best bakkies! I've had Ford and Toyota in the past...both gave me kak... they still make Isuzu's out of steel.

Nee wat Johan...daai "module" is maar net getoor. There is nothing wrong with the thermo or the temp in my case. Still cant figure out why the freaking battery warning light comes on when your Coolant module is F@#cked?? Eish baas, hou?

Anyway, I've now bypassed the problem....Just wonder what will happen if the Oil Pressure light comes on?? It prob means my brake lights dont work!

Have you sorted the problem out ?
