I have a 96 ss camaro and my low coolant light keeps coming on. i have the proper amout of coolant in the radiator and the overflow bottle. this problem only seems to occur when on warm days after i have been driving it for 20 min. or so. when it is cooler outside the light never comes on. i have done a coolant flush lately think maybe a clogged system would cause it but that didnt work. could it be something wrong with my t-stat? or my radiator? any help would be great.

 

it is common for the low coolant sensor to go bad

are you checking the level in the rad? or just the bottle?

 

i check them both but mainly the radiator level itself

 

so where would my low coolant sensor be located so i can replace it?

 

Check my Tech Page for location and how to replace it.

 

Another alternative is to just unplug it and the light will go out. Assuming you look at your temp gauge every now and then, no biggie.

 

Yeah my eye is always on the temp gauge but it didnt take much to replace the sensor
