Engine Cooling — 2.5L Duratec (147kW/200PS) - VI5 – Overview
Auxiliary coolant pump
An electrically operated auxiliary coolant pump is
installed on vehicles with a trailer coupling and/or
additional heating. The auxiliary coolant pump
ensures that the coolant is circulated when the
coolant pump (which is driven by the engine) is not
running.
The additional heating uses the auxiliary coolant
pump to circulate hot coolant through the heat
exchanger and the engine.
On vehicles with a trailer coupling the auxiliary
coolant pump is switched on for 6 minutes by the
PCM (powertrain control module) if the coolant
temperature exceeds 106°C when the engine is
switched off. This prevents the coolant circuit from
overheating. This could happen particularly if the
engine is switched off after towing a heavy trailer
up a steep hill before there has been sufficient time
for cooling.
