MODEL 

163 as of 1.3.99

P54.30-2690-06

S41 Coolant level indicator electronic switch

The coolant level indicator electronic switch 
(S41) is integrated in the coolant reservoir.

Coolant level switch, task

To record the coolant level:

Coolant level in order or below minimum

Coolant level switch, design

The coolant level indicator electronic switch 
(S41) consists of two electrodes which are 
permanently cast to the coolant reservoir and 
a connector with contacts which have an 
electrical connection to the electrodes.

Coolant level switch, function

The two electrodes are either immersed or 
not immersed in the coolant depending on the 
coolant level. As a result the test current 
changes via the coolant level indicator 
electronic switch (S41). This change is 
evaluated by the instrument cluster (A1).

An alternating current is used so that the 
electrodes do not disintegrate.
