"Low Coolant" although it is full ?
I started to get this code a few months ago, I added some coolant and was fine until early this week. I get this code every 5 to 10 minutes. The coolant level is fine, where is the sensor located?
Can anyone offer some advice?

The sensor is in the tank. I think there was a TSB out on this that called for just replacing the whole tank. Mine stopped after I bought some goodies from Noel @ AutoBuffs. :)

I just started having the same issue with my sensor. It's located in the rear of the washer bottle. I unplugged mine, and reinserted. After I did that the message disappeared, and hasn't returned in about 24 hours. I will probability go back and give it a good cleaning, since it appears that's were the problem was coming from. Good Luck.

mine used to pop on sometimes when parked on an incline pointing downward. it appears to be very sensitive adding a bit of coolant may solve you problme , it worked for me and you will burn off a bit under normal driving anyhow.

I had the same problem as lostsoulny. On a down hill incline the low coolent would come on. Added a little coolant and all is fine! Good Luck on the repair. :cheers:
