    I can't get my Low Coolant Light to go out. I filled the coolant overflow tank and that didn't work. Is there a way to bleed the air out of the system if it has any? I need help!!!!!!!!!!

    Let the car warm up to operating temp and open the 7mm bleeder on the t-stat assuming you have a 3800 engine. If you have a 3.1/3.4 there are two bleeds one by the t-stat neck and the other is by the water pump they are both 7mm. More than likely your sensor has crap in it, you can clean it out or just unplug it it is on the top right of the rad.

    if bleeding the system doent help, your sensor probably went bad, if you watch your temp guage you can just unplug it the sensor, if you dont watch your guages replace the sensor

    Passenger side towards the top of the rad. Youll see the square sensor with the plug on it.
