JBOB 0 Posted June 2, 2005 Check the water level. Theres a sensor in the top of the tank and makes the light flash when the water gets to low. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin Dave 0 Posted June 2, 2005 I used to find this happening on my 16V. If the coolent level is a bit low on a cold engine then the light came on but as long as the level wasn't too low a bit of expansion in the fluid seemed to be enough to sort it (temporarily of course). Just keep an eye out for leaks and overheating in the mean time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
