Coolant Light

[fine99]

On my '99 Gt I have the coolant light come on occasionally and it stays on until I shut the car off. If I restart the car, the light will go out. Coolant levels are good, no leaks. Has anyone had this problem and what could it be? (Thinkin it's a sensor...) Thanks!

Yep it is your float sensor. You can take the floaty thing out of the tank(what I did). Or you can go ford and get a new tank...

I had the same problem but now it is on constantly. I have heard it may be a stuck float but havent got around to it yet.

Mine was doing the same thing. The float had built up a film on it and was hangin up. I drained the radiator, back flushed it, and sprayed the float good with a water hose to clean it off, and it works fine now.
