What is the Coolant Level Sensor all about?

The coolant level sensor is designed to alert the driver when the coolant level is low and to prevent overheating or damage to the engine. This aids in diagnosing leaks and other dangerous cooling system conditions.

Coolant level sensors can consist of a plastic sensor with a plastic or foam float that sits underneath the coolant reservoir cap. Or, they can be plastic sensors that plug into the radiator or other component of the cooling system.

Some vehicles are equipped with a Low Coolant or Check Coolant warning light, while others may display a picture of the vehicle with a red dot in the engine bay. This is to inform the driver that the coolant needs to be checked or that there is a fault with the sensor.

Keep in mind:

The Check Coolant warning light may seem like a nuisance, but the system is there for a reason: to inform the driver of potentially dangerous engine conditions.

How it's done:

  • The Coolant Level Sensor is verified that it needs to be replaced. The coolant is drained to be below the sensor.

  • The defective Coolant Level Sensor is removed by disconnecting the electrical connection and removing it from the radiator or reservoir.

  • The new Coolant Level Sensor is installed, connected and the coolant is refilled. Then the cooling system is purged of air.

  • The Coolant Level Sensor is tested for leaks after system is filled and engine is run.

  • The vehicle is tested to ensure proper operation of the Cooling System

Our recommendation:

If you suspect the coolant level sensor has failed, have one of our licensed mechanics come to you to diagnose the issue and replace the part. Our mechanics can determine whether the sensor float is faulty, if the sensor itself is bad, or if there is low coolant or a leak in the system.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Coolant Level Sensor?

  • Check Coolant or Low Coolant light on and displays even when coolant been topped off
  • Coolant level is low but no warning lights illuminate

How important is this service?

While you may wish to ignore the beeping and warning lights in your vehicle, it is important to get a diagnosis for the problem immediately before any further damage occurs, including unwanted coolant loss, engine overheating, and other major issues.

Chevrolet Classic L4-2.2L - Brake Master Cylinder - Austin, Texas
Robert was a great experience all around. He was on time, friendly, and got the job done quickly for me. Even though I'd already had it diagnosed, he quickly ran through an assessment of what it was doing just to be sure the parts were needed before just replacing them.

Chevrolet Classic L4-2.2L - Bleed Brakes - Snellville, Georgia
The problem was air in my brake lines. Tim bled the front two and about 80% of the problem was fixed. He examined the rear wheels and recommended replacing wheel cylinder, shoes and drums. When he punched in the numbers it came to $515. My guess he was having to use the model from the company. Total parts at Advance Auto would have been around $ 120-140, and considering a bout 1 hour to do the job for an experienced mechanic, the price should not have been more that $375. I should have received a little credit for only bleeding two lines, but I would have settled for $400 total anyway. I looked up the details in my Haynes. Wheel cylinder maybe 15 min each. Brake shoes 15 min total ( I could do them in 45 min) Drums pop on. Only difficulty would be parking brake add extra 10 min. Bleed and cleanup perhaps 10 more min. 1 Hr 10 Min $370 labor? A shop would not have charged that much. Brake places charge about $150 a wheel to rebuild. and would have cleaned the drums rather than replace. I believe in paying for what I get, but this job should not have been more that $400. And I don't think the quote is Tim's fault.
