    Your coolant is full but your truck says it is out of coolant. You can fix this so the truck doesn't shut you down. The coolant level sensor is bad so it panics and tells the truck it has to shut down to protect itself. But you can trick the truck into staying running and bypass the bad sensor.

    I just turned mine around a few time twisting back and forth once I connected it. It worked. Maybe air was in the lines 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Mine had a red tab on the side to pull and a black lever on the bottom to squeeze. Freightliner 2016

    Even after replacing the sensor, I am still getting a engine coolant level 1 fault code. I have a Paccar mx13 engine. Any idea on what it could be? Maybe something is somehow grounded?

      Might be the harness that’s causing the fault

    Watch your temperature gauge if you unplug the sensor! That would tell you if your losing coolant

    Unfortunately, this didn't work for my 2020 Pete 579 with a Paccar engine. It would idle ok and drive at up to about 5 mph without trying to shutdown the engine, but anything beyond that and the 60 second engine shut off timer would kick on.

      Shoot, that is the tough thing with Paccar engines. They are so finicky about stuff. But one thing we did do with our paccar engine when the coolant sensor freaked out was trying the paper clip to trick the circuit, have you tried that? ruclips.net/video/mNgquxsWQLE/видео.html

      @Double D Distribution No, but I will if I have any more problems. Yesterday, I uninstalled the sensor, cleaned it, and used canned air to carefully blow out the connectors on both the sensor and the wiring harness, then put it all back together. I also overfilled the coolant reservoir to well over the cold full line. The problem went away after that. I still went ahead and bought a new sensor to keep as a spare. I hope I won't need it.

    Moisture gets up in tube..I flooded my sensor and tube with wd40...all good now.

    • @DDTruckDriver
      @DDTruckDriver  Год назад

      Hey that is great advice, tell us more about that please. You remove the sensor and sprayed it liberally with WD40? Or how exactly did you do it?

    Thanks but this beeping sound is annoying 😢

    • @DDTruckDriver

      Yes but being stuck on the side of the road is much more annoying than a sound
