Check Light? - United Bimmer Community

okay... ive got a question...

Coolant Light above the mirror lights up. and stays on.

So i check it. Everything is at proper levels and concentration. So, basically im wondering what is up.

The car doesnt overheat, runs right in middle of the temp gauge. So, ive sort of disregarded it as,

The Washer Fluid light is on too, even when it is topped off. The winsheld washers still work and everthing.

So basically, is this just a prolem due to the fact that its a 20 year old car with old sensors?

That would be my guess, the sending/sensor units either need cleaning or replacement. Oh, and welcome to UB.c

yea probably your sensor, in the e36 its right at the bottom of the resorvoir, it should be located somewhere near there on the e30

My coolant sensor was doing that and it turned out I had a every so super slow leek cuz one of my clamps was loose.
My coolant level didnt go down notably and was always full but that clamp being loose was what did it cuz once it was tightened up there was no problem with my coolant since.

my windshield washer sensor is the same way.

now we need sensors for the sensors. . .
