have you changed your coolant recently? make sure you have no air bubbles in your system. to do that, take the cap off when the car is cold, and run it... till it starts to get hot (boiling coolant)

Yeah I'm having the same problem with my '95 Z28. That light bothers the crap out of me when I take my car on long distance drives. It bothers me the most at night when I have my interior lights dimmed, it's the only one that blindes the hell out of me. How could I get it to cut off?

I paid just under $40 with shipping at http://vandevere.com/.
Some things I just don't want to compromise - I want to know right away if the coolant level drops. Like what was mentioned here - remove the battery, drop the coolant level a little and its a quick swap. You can have your tools out and put away in 30 minutes.

yeah people told me that, but you won't think its low anyway when its on because your thinking its just on becuase its bad so its fine ethier way.
