The Cummins fault code 197 troubleshooting manual is the official Cummins procedure for diagnosing Coolant Level – Data Valid But Below Normal Operational Range – Moderately Severe Level. The coolant level sensor is a switch and is used to measure the level of the engine coolant in the radiator top tank. The coolant level sensor is immersed in the coolant and returns a different signal voltage when immersed in coolant versus being out of the coolant. The Electronic Control Module (ECM) monitors the change in voltage caused by changes in the resistance of the sensor to determine the level of the engine coolant. The amber warning lamp behaviour, the exact conditions that set and clear the code, and the guided steps that isolate the Coolant Level are documented in order.
