Default Coolant light still on.....

Ok so my check coolant light is still on and its driving me nuts.....would this be for the sensor on the back of the reservoir, Because the only part i can find aat the parts stores, is the temperature sensor. Has anyone else had this problem

I've seen this on a '99 Cobra. He replaced the sensor and the light went away. It cannot be reset with a tuner or anything like that, and it will not show a code most likely.

You may have to go to Ford. Some parts are never released for aftermarket production. My buddy's EGR tube for his F150 was a dealer only item.

Yeah. It's usually twice the price.

BTW, I thought you were going to remove the pony decals? Decided to keep them after all?
