Coolant Light

Would or could your coolant light come on if you have too MUCH coolant in the system?
For some reason my light is comming on and every time when I check my lvls are fine and I dont have any leaks anywere. Any ideas my friends?

I don't think it would come on if your level is too high... Is the buzzer going off too?

Could just be a short.

The coolant light will only come on if your coolant is too low. If the sensor is immersed in coolant and your warning light is coming on, you either have a bad sensor or bad wiring to the sensor.

No, the bottle says it is Amoxicillin. I thought it was kind of funny, although the more I look at it, the more I think I should change it
