I recently had problems with my coolant light staying on despite my coolant level being high.
I got a new coolant level sensor and it seemed to have worked for about a month. Then it would say "low coolant" until the engine warmed up. (I already bled the air out of the line). Now, it just says "low coolant" all the time again.
It makes me wonder if I have some sort of oil or gunk in my coolant that is clogging the sensor. You figure if gunk accumulates on there, it would wash off when the coolant starts cycling again (when the engine is warm) and over time would build up until it said "low coolant" all the time.
I was going to go in and check the connection and maybe clean the connector and add some connector grease (unless that stuff is snake oil). Anything else I can check?
