#COOLANT SYSTEM DRIVER#

It should be noted that the engine thermostat is not connected to the driver controlled temperature selection knob. Its function is to maintain the coolant and therefore the engine at the appropriate operating temperature. The thermostat is located in the engine, in the upper heater hose. In the “cold” position, the valve closes, allowing cool air from the air conditioning system to circulate through the radiator heater and thus cool the passenger compartment. In the “warm” position, the temperature control valve opens, allowing engine coolant to flow through the heater radiator and thus heat the car’s interior. On the dashboard, the temperature selector switch controls the temperature control valve located in the engine compartment. The heater is the small device located under the dashboard of the vehicle. Most often, it is activated by a belt installed on the pulley itself connected to the engine pulley, or by a timing belt running at the same speed as the engine. The water pump allows the liquid to circulate in the cooling circuit and in the engine block.

Radiator hoses are used to circulate the coolant to the engine, which flows to the radiator. It is not advisable to mix different types of coolants. It is essential to use the correct type of coolant for each vehicle model. Its role is to absorb heat from the engine and dissipate it through the radiator. It serves to protect the engine from overheating, freezing and rust. The coolant is also a major player in the proper functioning of the cooling circuit. The fan allows a flow of air to pass through the slats and dissipate the heat accumulated in the coolant. The radiator’s inner bundle allows the coolant to circulate and transfer its heat to the metal cooling bands surrounding the bundle. The radiator is the main element of the cooling circuit.
