Gauge Symbol (Meaning?)

When i started my 1994 Camaro Z28 up this morning, everything was fine. Then after it ran for a little while a light came on that was a box with looks like water in it with an arrow pointing down. It is located right near the left blinker light. I dont have a manual for my car so i was wondering if someone could help me and tell me what it meant. Thanks.

Low coolant light. It could either be a bad sensor (common problem) or, obviously, low fluid. I believe if it's a bad sensor, you can just disconnect it. Do a search to make sure though. And if you do disconnect it, you'd be stay on top of that fluid level.

My first reaction would be to check the weep-hole underneath your waterpump,if it's dripping out it would cause your low coolant light to illuminate.

Yep, low coolant light. You can look at/download a manual at http://shbox.com/pdf/manuals.html

Before you go disconnecting stuff, I would first verify that your coolant levels are good and your coolant system overall is working properly.
