Low Coolant light
Would there be any other sensor that would cause the low coolant light to come on other than the sensor in the overflow bottle? My low coolant light stays on even though the radiator & overlfow bottle are full, but my car overheats on really hot days when I turn on the AC. Any thoughts?- bigdoggee
