MAKE IT STOP! (coolant buzzer)
I did a search on this and i mainly saw everyone that blew their coolant seals and whatnot. I filled my car up all the way, no bubbles, everything is hooked up correctly and the damn thing still goes off.
---I will be installing an aftermarket temp gauge that has it own warning light. I check my coolant levels everytime before i start it up.
----since i do that all the time, i wont need the damn stock light/temp gauge.....
IS there any way to eliminate that buzzer? i pulled the little fuse box deal apart only to find a circuit board that has the little buzzer on it I read in one of the posts that someone knew how to ground it out, but never specified how to do it. Any help is greatly appreciated. thanks

Unplug the wire for the buzzer and ground it out on something, All it does is ground out when it touches the coolant, if you know its full get rid of the buzzer and make sure its always full...

I had to do it on my FC becuz it kept goin off, but on the FC's its like ten times louder, There is one wire coming off the level sensor, cut it and ground it out anywhere...

Word... My bet is its the buzzer, if you keep filling it up and your sure its not leaking from ANYWHERE, I mean not even from the overflow then the buzzer is smoking crack...

I heard on the FD's there are two sensors, the one on the filler neck which is the single black wire that connects to the sensor and runs right by the AC mount. The other is on the driverside by the front leading plug.Is this true? Would i have to ground them both out?
The car doesnt puff white smoke on start up or anything like that, it doesnt leak anywhere. When i top it off with coolant(making it overflow), the sensor by the filler neck sure as hell is getting water to it, i can visually see it damn near, and the buzzer/light stays on....When i get back home from work im goin to try and ground both those little bitches out. thanks for everyones advice so far.
Anyone else have some insight?
thanks

IM going to try and ground out that SOB. i was just looking through the workshop manual and i guess it only has one coolant level sensor. (the one on the filler neck) Ill try grounding it out, if no luck, i found theplug on the driverside interior fuse box makes that damn thing stop. Unfortunatly it also cuts power to my oil press and water temp guages. Ill have an aftermarket water temp guage. THe stock oil pressure gauge is a joke as it is, so who cares about it. thanks

I've had this same problem since I bought my car. I replaced the whole damn wiring harness (for other reasons) and I also replaced the sensor. It still goes off constantly. I just dealt with it, now the new EMS doesn't pay attention to that sensor. Damn it was annoying.
