I drove the FD to work today and when I got in the parking lot i noticed that the coolant light and the oil light had just turned on. They are liking blinking/fading in and out, I didn't hear a buzzer or anything. I also let the car cool down for about an hour and restarted it but when I started it again the lights came back. Yesterday I had my compressor changed, I drove the car to the gym and back (20 miles ) and I this just happened as I rolled in the parking lot at work ( 30 miles ). Any suggestion to what could be happening or what I should look for, can I drive the car back tonight? Could some sensor have fallen off?

Note: I had check the coolant and oil levels yesterday and they looked good. I will check the levels again at lunch. The oil pressure and the engine temp look good also.

Appreciate you help, thanks in advance guys

 

check the single wire connectors on the coolant neck and oil pan...strange they both fail at the same time???

 

You might have your alternator tested.

 

It's your alternator.

 

Thanks guys, the oil and coolant levels look fine. I thought I saw the battery light barely fad in for a bit when I started the car this morning but I took it for my imagination and ignored it. So do you guys this I can drive the car home?

 

You can drive the car home but in all likelihood it is the alternator and, specifically, the voltage regulator in the alternator in all probability . You do not want to drive it for an extended period if it is steadily overcharging the system. For one, your battery will begin to boil. I would suggest you get it to a parts store and have them test the charging system.
