This light means your car is be overheating, or the temperature switch is faulty, if you are constantly topping up the water you may need to have the engine pressure tested as head gasket failure is common on this model (i know I've just done one)
the other thing make sure the cooling fan cuts in, if it doesnt you need to check this temperature switch too or the fan. Hope this helps
coolant leak more than likely heater hose pipe
The coolant capacity of the 1988 Voyager is 8.5 quarts in the initial fill. After the initial fill, it will need to be topped off.
Pressurizing the cooling system raises the boiling point of the engine coolant. under normal conditions this keeps the coolant from boiling and having to be frequently topped off.
I had this happen on my 2001 S-10. I had a very slow coolant leak and when the coolant would get low I could hear what sounded like water flowing from around the heater. At first I thought I had water built up inside the A/C evaporator which was gurgling, but finally realized it was a coolant problem. Once I fixed my leak and topped off the coolant the noise was gone. Hope this helps.
How do you get light to turn off on 2001 GMC Sierra coolant light is staying on even after topped off
No. When the engine is running coolant is heated and expands. Excess coolant then flows from the radiator to the expansion (overflow) tank. When the engine is shut down coolant cools and contracts drawing fluid back out of the tank to keep the radiator topped off.
Ive topped mine out around 55. this was a completely stock run though
China topped the overall medal table with USA coming 2nd and Russia 3rd.
If you are referring to the temperature of the air coming from the heater, the most likely cause is low coolant in the cooling system. If that is the case, coolant is not flowing through the heater core when at idle, or stopped. Easiest fix is to check the coolant level (engine cool) at the radiator cap. Make sure it is absolutely full. Once that is done, also check the level at the overflow tank. Make sure it is at least half full at all times. This helps to keep the coolant level "topped off" so that there is no air in the system. Good Luck, Greg
you put too much oil in, it is burning the oil.
Switch the ignition off and start the car again.The light will then stop flashing.
it could be the themostat housing gasket
