    P0C73 Coolant Pump Error

    Hi Peter, In total agreeance with Mickey and kiev. I originally bought a iCarsoft i620, worked OK with the OBDZero App and caniON App, however would'nt work with the Car Scanner App or Hob Drive (it wouldn't allow DTC error resets) so I bit the bullet and bought the OBDLink MX + which functions...

    P0C73 Coolant Pump Error

    Bonjour Peter, Your English is far better than my French …. ha ,,, “Data Out” is just my terminology for the feedback pulse (Pin 2 WPN) from the pump to the EV-ECU so the ECU can monitor that the pump is working (210-230Hz), if it doesn’t receive this signal then it triggers a P0C73 error...

    P0C73 Coolant Pump Error

    Hi Peter, I suggest that you purchase a OBD dongle (I use OBDLinkMX+) and download the CarScanner App and it will report DTC Codes, it also allows you to clear some of them. The code I was getting was "Code P0C73 Water pump error”. I haven't done any more work on the old pump, apart from scrape...

    P0C73 Coolant Pump Error

    Thanks MickeyS for the comment/feedback. After reading many pages on the Forum regarding OBC failure it seems to me that heat has a large part to play in many of the fails, I used to work in an industry where we were told the Air-conditioning was not for our “comfort” it was there for the...

    P0C73 Coolant Pump Error

    Hi, Finally installed the new coolant pump, topped up the system and purged the air according to the instructions (attached). 1st of all I reset the DTCs P0C73 using the “Car Scanner” App I mis-read Step 2. “Set the electric motor switch to “ON” position” and actually turned it to the “START”...

    P0C73 Coolant Pump Error

    Thankyou All, I have left the pump on the car and ordered a new one, probably a month before it arrives, will resume the conversation then. In the meantime I have learnt a 'lot' but probably just a 'little' about how the little car works ..... interesting exercise. I must have upset the "pump...

    P0C73 Coolant Pump Error

    Another thought : Here in Aus we have Mitsubshi PHEV (Plug In Hybrids) using the 10.5kw iMiev battery, I wonder how they keep the OBC cool when charging ? Any PHEV experts out there ??

    P0C73 Coolant Pump Error

    P0C73 Coolant Pump Error

    Wow .... Thankyou all I spent time yesterday looking at circuit diagrams (I'm an "old" Tech) like to see how it all operates before I start "operating". I did a 'test' with the ASC switch ( TCL in MiniCab) to see if the pump would turn on , as per instructions on changing the coolant fluid. ie...

    P0C73 Coolant Pump Error

    I've loaded CarScanner App and it will report DTC Codes, the code I'm getting is "Code P0C73 Water pump error (low speed)" ? So I assume this means that my water pump may not be circulating enough fluid to keep the OBC cool ? I have checked the fluid bottle and it does have fluid in it . Next...
