Default Unidentified warning light

This light comes on from time to time. It has a symbol on it that would indicate a low fluid. I have checked everything and all is fine. My first thought that it is power steering. My ps pump whines like crazy but after searching threads it seems like some of them just do that. I constantly check the fluid and it never seems to eat or leak any. I also checked coolant and it is fine as well.

OP that is your low coolant light. It's most likely starting to fail since you know it's full. Mine comes all the time but is as full as its gonna get. Just havent replaced it.
