G'day guys,
Anyone else had problems with the Low Coolant Indicator on the instrument panels. I had the damn thing come on when the coolant tank is full damn thing was only serviced 2000kms ago.... only thing I did notice upon visual inspection was the plastic centre of the coolant cap slightly lifting could this cause the low coolant indicator to come on? Cheers Chris |

I don't think its the wiper level there is a fan in the middle of the symbol even if it was the wiper that's full too... lol
Maybe a short perhaps or a bit of dirt somewhere? Chris |

The float in the sensor assy may be full of coolant causing it to sink which brings on the light. Remove the sensor & inspect it.

Your problem might be a head gaskit gone, that inturn is creating pressure in your coolant tank forcing your tank to lift up slightly.
I would just change the radiator cap first and see what happens. -Since I have an AU1 there is no coolant sensor on the coolant tank, Is there any other way I would know if my coolant is low in the car? Last edited by LOWAU; 27-09-2005 at 08:35 AM. Reason: forgot to respond to orig question |
