Title: Low Coolant warning light
Post by Nunnspoet on Jul 5^th, 2013, 8:59am

I'm back after a lot of excellent, faultless driving (I mean the car ::) ) in my 24 valve red Cossie Estate. However the "low Coolant"warning light illuminated, so I topped her up but the warning light has stayed on.

How do I get it to switch off? Is there a plug that I can access on the tank and where is it? I don't reall want to take the tank off as there are a lot of electricks under it and I am loath to give them a soaking, so I would be gratefull for any advice, thanks.

Mike

I think the plug is underneath the tank.

The plug to the sensor is indeed under the tank-at least on the saloons !

:-[. Okay, well here goes.

I decided to wash my windscreen yesterday only to find after a few secs. that the tank was empty :o. Daylight dawned in my noddle :-[. I drove home, filled the Screen Washer Bottle, turned on th ignition and guess what. All lights extinguished as they should. Hoots of derisory laughter from my Son a "Humph" and grin from me wife, ::).

The Bottle and Screen Washer system is not leaking therefore it's all down to me! Ah well, it's me 70th. soon. Lets hope I remember.
