Default Coolant

My coolant light keeps coming on but there's coolant is full... Any ideas?
Is there a sensor that could be bad? Maybe just when it's parked at a little bit of an incline it throws it off?

if your coolant is full, check the connector on the level sensor, sometimes they grow corrosion in there and screw with the terminals...if not its probably just a bad level sensor...just unplug it and youll never see that light again!

They always go bad. Thats why they finally got rid of them in 99 or something. Unplug it or get use to the light on like I did. Not even worth the hassle of replacing IMO.

try cleaning it, otherwise if that doesnt help, replace it... not cheap!
