Here's where you need to check the coolant level:



If the coolant is not near the top of the filler neck, then that is what's causing your low coolant buzzer.

Also inspect your coolent level sensor and make sure its in good shape. Mine somehow seperated itself from its own plastic threads and my buzzer came on even though my coolent level was golden.

And don't go by what is reading on the factory water temp. gauge. It stays in the middle until it's too late.

Its on the filler neck. that metal thingy thats been circled. Its on the front side towards the bottom. Should have a lead coming out of it. Looks like a hex nut covered in black goop with a wire coming out of it. Best description I can give sorry.
