Coolant light stuck on

[GettinPaper]

I was wondering why my coolant light would be stuck on??? It just shows the yellow birdcage and is really annoying... What would cause this.. a faulty sensor on the overflow tank if i'm not mistaken?? Or what?? Any help is appreciated.. Thanks..

Fairly easy to check the sensor.

Two wires shorted when the plunger is down and two wires open when the plunger is.

Unplug coolant sensor from the chassis.

Meter resistance.

Open when full and closed when empty.

Pull the container, wash it out with very hot soapy water until is clean of all the crap the settles to the bottom. Re-install and fill to line with coolant.

Bet that fixes it.
