P2556
From Ross-Tech Wiki
P2556 - Engine Coolant Level Sensor/Switch: Electrical Malfunction
Possible Symptoms
- MIL On
- Cooling system malfunctioning
Possible Causes
- Faulty Engine Coolant Level Sensor (G32)
- Faulty Engine Temperature Control Actuator (N493)
- Wiring or power/ground issues to those components
Possible Solutions
- Check Engine Coolant Level Sensor (G32), Engine Temperature Control Actuator (N493) in addition to the related wiring per the repair manual.
Special Notes
- At face value you would initially believe this DTC is for the Engine Coolant Level Sensor however in most cases that sensor is wired to the 17-Instrument Cluster or the 09-Central Electronics. The Coolant Level Sensor is not usually wired directly to the 01-Engine control module. In those cases the thermostat (N493) and the wiring to it should be checked as per post #8 in this thread: https://forums.ross-tech.com/index.php?threads/28967/
- The example vehicle would use this generation 09-Cent. Elect. module MLB based Cent. Elect. (J519) BCM1 and measuring block group 028.1 can be used to check the Coolant Level (G32) status.
