Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Coolant Level Control
The engine cooling system contains an engine coolant level switch to alert the driver in the event of a coolant loss. The coolant level switch sends out a coolant loss signal over the low coolant level indicator control circuit through the underhood accessory wiring junction block. When the coolant level switch reads a low coolant level in the cooling system the switch closes. The instrument cluster has a coolant level warning indicator that receives power from the fuse block ignition 1 voltage. Ground is provided by the ground circuits through the underhood accessory wiring junction block to G101.
