Default Coolant Light

The coolant light is coming on every once in a while. I don't think it's low or overheating. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Check your coolant level there buddy?:shifty: If not might be a bad sensor

could possibly be a sensor but your tank is probably low. It could be caused from splashing around and the car seeing it empty at the time.

Go out and get a full coolant flush and refill, or do it at home.

The coolant light in my 99 GT has been on for the past few months. To replace the sesor you have to buy the entire overflow assembly, its about $60. I looked in the tank and I saw the float no longer floats. My car doesnt run hot at all.
