2008 GEELY FC check engine

Cooling - Cooling syste2. Check engine coolant level in reservoir.Engine coolant level should be between “Low” and “Full” mark line.
Hint: if the level is too low, check there is leakage and refill coolant to “Full” mark line.3. Check engine coolant quality.(a) Remove radiator cap.
Warning: when the temperature of engine and radiator is high, do not remove radiator cap to
avoid being scalded, because coolant and steam will spurt under high pressure.
(b) Check there is too much rust deposit around radiator cap or at outlet and check there is flake; there
should not be oil in the coolant.
Hint: if coolant is too dirty, it is required to replace coolant.
(c) Install back radiator cap.Inspection1. Temperature regulatorHint: the figure on temperature regulator is the
opening temperature of valve.CoolingCooling systemOn-vehicle inspection1. Check there is leakage with cooling system.Warning: when the temperature of engine and radiator is
high, do not remove radiator cap to avoid be-
ing scalded, because coolant and steam will
spurt under high pressure.
(a) Refill coolant to radiator, and install radiator cap tester.
(b) Preheat engine.
(c) Pump tester to make pressure go up to 118KPa, and check
the pressure falls.
Hint: if the pressure falls, check there is leakage with
hose, radiator or water pump, and check heater,
cylinder body and cylinder head if no external leak-
age is found.66

Cooling - Cooling fan systemCooling fan systemOn-vehicle inspection1. Check cooling fan function at low temperature (below 95).(a) Turn ignition switch to ON.
(b) Check cooling fan is stopped.
Hint: if it is not stopped, check cooling fan relay and water temperature sensor, or check the
joint or wire harness between them.
(c) Uncouple water temperature sensor joint.
(d) Check cooling fan runs.
If it does not run, check fuse, cooling fan relay, engine ECU and cooling fan, or check there is short
circuit between them.
(e) Connect back water temperature sensor joint.2. Check cooling fan function at high temperature (above 95).(a) Start engine and increase coolant temperature up to above Hint: water temperature is the value measured by water temperature sensor on water outlet.
(d) Check cooling fan runs.
Hint: if it does not run, please replace water temperature sensor.3. Check cooling fan.(a) Uncouple cooling fan joint.
(b) Connect battery and ampere meter to cooling fan joint.
(c) Check cooling fan runs normally and check ampere meter reading.Standard current: 712A
(d) Connect back cooling fan joint.Inspection1. Electronic fan relay [67000064]

Oil filter assemblyReplacementWarning:Long-term or repeat contacting mineral oil will cause decomposing of natural fat on skin, which
will result in dry and sensitive skin and skin rankling. Used oil has potential harm and may cause
carcinoma cutis.When replacing engine oil, always wear protective clothes and gloves to avoid waste oil
penetrating, and reduce the frequency and time of skin contacting waster oil, and clean with
soapy water or clean water not with gasoline, thinner or solvent if skin contacts waste oil.To protect environment, waste oil and oil filter must be abandoned at named place.1. Remove engine right bottom shield.
