Schematic for coolant level sensor
The connection of any electrical equipment and the disconnection of any electrical equipment may cause an explosion hazard which may result in injury or death. Do not connect any electrical equipment or disconnect any electrical equipment in an explosive atmosphere.
Test Step 1. Check the Coolant Level
Pressurized System: Hot coolant can cause serious burns. To open the cooling system filler cap, stop the engine and wait until the cooling system components are cool. Loosen the cooling system pressure cap slowly in order to relieve the pressure.
Stop the engine.
Check the coolant level. Refer to the engine's Operation and Maintenance Manual for the proper procedure.Expected Result:The coolant is at the proper level.Results:
OK - The coolant is at the proper level. Proceed to Test Step 2.
Not OK - The coolant level is low.Repair: Add coolant according to the procedure in the Operation and Maintenance Manual.Verify that the repair eliminates the problem. Identify the source of the coolant leak and fix the problem.STOPTest Step 2. Inspect the Electrical Connectors and the Wiring
Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.

Perform a 45 N (10 lb) pull test on each of the wires in the ECM connector, the customer connector, and the sensor connector that is associated with the circuit for the coolant level sensor.
Check the allen head screw on the ECM connector and the customer connector for the proper torque. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Electrical Connectors - Inspect" for the correct torque.Expected Result:All connectors, pins, and sockets are completely coupled and/or inserted, and the harness and wiring are free of corrosion, of abrasion, and of pinch points.Results:
OK - The connectors and wiring are OK. Proceed to Test Step 3.
Not OK - There is a problem with the connectors and/or the wiring.Repair: Repair the wiring and/or the connectors. Replace parts, if necessary. Ensure that all of the seals are properly connected. Verify that the original problem is resolved.STOPTest Step 3. Short the Harness and Monitor the Status of "Coolant Level"
Connect Cat ET to the service tool connector. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Electronic Service Tools".
Disconnect the J34/P34 coolant level sensor connector.
Install a jumper wire between terminal B (sensor return) and terminal C (coolant level sensor signal).
Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
Monitor the status of "Coolant Level" on Cat ET while the jumper wire is installed.
Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
Remove the jumper wire.
Connect the J34/P34 connectors.Expected Result:The status of the "Coolant Level" is "OK" when the jumper wire is installed.Results:
OK - The status of the "Coolant Level" is "OK" when the jumper wire is installed. The ECM, the signal wire, and the return wire are OK. Proceed to Test Step 4.
Not OK - The status of the "Coolant Level" is "Low" when the jumper wire is installed. Proceed to Test Step 5.Test Step 4. Check the Supply Voltage at the Sensor Connector
Disconnect the J34/P34 connectors.
Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
Measure the voltage between terminals A (+8 VDC digital sensor supply) and B (Return) at the harness connector for the engine coolant level sensor.
Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.Expected Result:The voltage between terminals A (+8 V digital supply) and B (sensor return) is 8.0 0.4 VDC.Results:
OK - The supply voltage is reaching the sensor. The ECM and harnesses are OK.Repair: Replace the engine coolant level sensor. Verify that the original problem is resolved.STOP
Not OK - The supply voltage is not reaching the sensor. There may be a problem with the digital sensor supply.Repair: Refer to Troubleshooting, "Digital Sensor Supply Circuit - Test" for the appropriate troubleshooting procedure.STOPTest Step 5. Create a Short Circuit at the ECM P1 Connector
Remove terminals P1-24 and P1-30. Install a jumper wire into open terminals P1-24 and P1-30.
Turn the keyswitch to the ON position and monitor the status of "Coolant Level" on Cat ET while the jumper wire is installed.
Remove the jumper wire. Monitor the status of "Coolant Level" on Cat ET.
Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.Expected Result:The status of the switch is "OK" when the jumper wire is connected. The status of the switch is "Low" when the jumper wire is not connected.Results:
OK - The status of the switch is "OK" when the jumper wire is connected. The status of the switch is "Low" when the jumper wire is not connected. The ECM is properly reading the switch input. However, the ECM did not detect the jumper wire at the sensor connector. There is a problem with the wir
