LOW COOLANT DTC

UnclassifiedCooling

What This Code Means

EGR Cooler soot buildup; EGR Cooler internal rupture; Visible coolant loss; Low coolant level in surge tank; Failed EGR cooler; Yellow-tinted condensation in EGR cooler (mistaken as coolant)

Possible Causes

  • Light load operation
  • External leaks
  • Internal EGR cooler failure
  • Normal condensation buildup due to cooler efficiency

Suggested Actions

  1. 1Remove flex elbow piping to complete a visual inspection of the EGR Cooler
  2. 2Check for active or stored low coolant codes or low surge tank
  3. 3Inspect for external leaks if coolant loss is visible or DTC history indicates coolant loss
  4. 4Pressure test cooling system while inspecting for additional coolant buildup in the EGR cooler
  5. 5Replace the failed EGR cooler and load bank for 2 hours of operation at 75% of the generator's nameplate rating to verify engine reliability
  6. 6Bleed coolant system at highest engine point after repairs
  7. 7Do not replace the EGR cooler if there is no coolant loss or low coolant DTCs, unless extreme soot buildup is present
