Water Pump Disable

In certain cases, especially after deep modifications or removal of specific engine cooling components, it becomes necessary to disable the water pump control on DAF trucks. Factory settings are designed for standard operating conditions, and modifying the cooling system without proper software adjustment may lead to errors, power limitations, or even engine shutdown.
With TruckTools software, we can safely and professionally disable water pump control via the engine’s ECU. This ensures that the truck operates reliably even after extensive system changes.

We offer this service remotely — our specialist can connect to your truck over the internet and complete the necessary procedures. Alternatively, you can purchase a TruckTools license and independently make such adjustments to your vehicles, saving both time and money.
The entire process is software-based, with no physical intervention needed in the water pump or cooling system.

Disabling the water pump is particularly relevant for trucks with alternative cooling setups, performance tuning, or operating under extreme environmental conditions. Proper adjustment through TruckTools eliminates fault codes and ensures full control over engine operations.

Why it’s needed / Key benefits:

  • Prevent errors and emergency modes: disabling water pump control avoids faults after cooling system modifications.

  • Flexible customization: easily adapt the truck to non-standard cooling configurations or special operating conditions.

  • Remote execution: no need to visit a service center, saving time and resources.

  • Safe and reliable: software-only changes eliminate the risk of damage to the water pump or other components.
