The only "fluid" light on an 85 is the Low Coolant Light.
If the radiator has not been properly burped, the light will illuminate steady.
Otherwise, it can be a general annoyance illuminating at random.
I disconnect it and run the connector to ground to keep the light out when autocrossing and spirited driving. Otherwise it still pops up when rolling along at 55.

It is the low coolant light.
I will burp the system after I replace the thermosat to 170
gasket leaks any way.
And coolant temperature sensor.
The only manual I have is a Haynes no good info on some thing!
SO I will get the HELMS service manual
Thank Alot !!!! MEN For Your INFO
