Default Low coolant light

I pulled and cleaned my radiator and it took a couple of days and a few burps to finally get my low coolant light to go off. However, I notice that it does not light when I turn the engine on. I believe some of the DIC lights are not supposed to come on with the engine. Is this normal for the low coolant light, or do I need to change the bulb? Thanks

Thanks,that does help. Are you talking about the lights in the DIC? That is where my low coolant light is.

The Low Coolant warning light is not active in bulb test. You're OK.
