Author Topic: Low coolant light comes on, coolant is full... 94Blackout ¯ Member # 2541 posted                              Not sure what the deal is. It only comes on in the morning on the way to work. The coolant is full, and don't see any leaks. Engine temperature never passes the middle of the gauge. Whats the deal here, a bad sensor or somethin? -------------------- 87 5.0 LX: Exploded 94 Cobra: Totalled 94 GT Vert: Rear ended 98 Charged GT: Sold 65-67 2+2 Fastback: Someday...

I believe the problem is the sensor. -------------------- 02 GT - Zinc Yellow 91 5.0 LX - Red Posts: 1316 | From: Fairfield | Registered: Jul 2002  |  : DropTopFox drama Member # 1689 posted                              yeah you gotta clean off the sensor, they are piees of shit especially in the 94-95 models. My 95 used to stay on constant. Just check it on occasion to make sure it's not telling the truth -------------------- Go out and do something for yourself today everyone, quit depending on others -Me http://www.CaliforniaFords.com/cgi-bin/album.pl?album=00001689 Posts: 4003 | From: San Bruno | Registered: Aug 2002  |  : outlawd94cobra SR.CITIZEN Member # 265 posted                              Clean the terminals at the end of the coolant OVERFILL RESERVOIR cap that lead to the bottom of the RESERVOIR and the underside of the overfill cap. That'll fix the problem, gunk gets built up at the bottom of the reservoir over time. -------------------- CRYSTAL WHITE 1994 COBRA; TOTALED RIO RED 1994 COBRA INDY PACE CAR; SOLD(now in VACAVILLE) (#18 of 1000) BLACK 2002 GT Vert' AUTO; GONE!
