Unknown Dash light

Hi,
I just bought a 96 Cavalier and I have a dash light that come on every now and then. It comes on and then goes back off. Anyone know what it is.

low coolant...if the light comes on when you have enough coolant in the overflow, just change the sensor.

Thanks. It happened a couple of times when I made a turn. Thanks again.

whats the light look like? lol....

Well if its full, then its a crapped out sensor.

Alright, how much do they usually run? Would it be alright to get one from a junkyard Cavi? and how easy is it to change? Your up awful late Cody. I just got done work at 2:30AM that's why I'm still up lol.

I was out for the evening with my girlfriend and i didn't get home till 1am. I'm not at college and i haven't been working since i left there dec 11th. Which makes me have nothing to do but chores around home and work on my car. Its quite enjoyable but man i am broke as fuck...

as for the sensor. They just pop in and out. If you get one from a junk yard it should work but for how long know one will know..
