SOURCE: Low Coolant Light Staying on

This car has sensors on it. If the coolant tank is full and the system is working properly, then one of the sensors is bad.

Have the cooling system presure tested to make sure you have no leaks. If test is good, then look to the sensors.

GM has different systems for each car depending on configuration, so it is hard to point to the one that may be bad.

2000 Buick Century - water pump replace

The water pump is not the problem if the recovery tank is full and no coolant is being sprayed onto the underside of the hood. the problem is a defective low coolant sensor which is very common in this car model and year. The sensor is in the radiator side tank and easy to replace as well as cheap, personally i disconnected mine.

Hello rickwyatt100: My name is Roger and I will help you. If you are sure the coolant system is full?Disconnect the low coolant sensor. Turn the ignition switch to the run position. Is the low coolant light lit? If No, Replace the low coolant sensor switch. If yes you need to check circuit 69 for a short to ground. If the circuit is ok replace instrument unit for repair or replacement. Should you need further help please just ask. Please rate the answer. Thank You for using Fix Ya. Roger

1996 Beretta

There are multiple items that could cause this. First off Chevy came out with ECO cool orange coolant on their cars with out first finding out that it was corrosive to certain plastics and rubber. So if you have this coolant in the 96 beretta it could have ate through one of your hoses.

Also by now your car is over ten years old and depending on the environment in which you drive the car could have created a crack in your radiator. The previous 96 beretta that I owned cracked all down one side. There is never a good fix for this except for replacing the radiator.

These cost about 100 at your local parts store and take the weekend to replace. If you still have the ecocool coolant though I would suggest that when you replace your radiator that you also switch to the standard green coolant. This will not harm your car and you will have less of a chance for your coolant to corrode something.

Having problems with the low coolant display on dashboard

Well if your lucky your heater core is leaking and I believe it would be leaking under the dashboard on the passenger side, feel the floor and see if it's wet. If that's not the problem than you may have a blown headgasket. One way you can check that is to look at your oil, if it has a little bit of a yellowish milky type color in it, it's your headgasket. If it's a small leak and it hasn't put enough into the oil yet you may to need have the cylinders pressure tested to check it. Good luck!
