Re: Coolant level connector

As long as it clips onto sensor I am good with it.
Be good to get rid of that pesky coolant light.

Re: Coolant level connector

Thanks but not really.
My lock goes over the top to back side of level sensor. That one has side press.
Can’t see it in my pics because it’s no longer there just crumbled when pulled it off.

Coolant level connector

My clip has just crumbled and does not lock any more causing it to come loose and low coolant lite.
Tried several mcGyver tricks but not found permanent fix.
If anyone has one that locks onto sensor with few inches of wire attached for soldering let me know.
Thx
