- The coolant pump, which is controlled via vacuum, may have a leak between the coolant and vacuum circuits so the coolant may enter the vacuum circuit. If the electric switchover valves are exposed to coolant, due to an electrochemical reaction, this can lead to a continuous increase in the temperature of the component part, which could cause fire.
