Did you check the windshield washing fluid?
Coolant symbol came on although everything seems fine
Hi Folks,
Today was a pretty hot day over here, 94 degree. My wife took the 1999 E320 to go downtown. After about 25mns of driving in stop and go traffic the engine coolant symbol came on. She said the car never overheated, the temperature gauge went close to 90 but not more. The engine coolant symbol stayed on until she came back home. As soon as she was home I checked the car and could see that indeed the coolant symbol was on but no engine light. I stoped the car, checked if there was any error code in memory with my OBD2 reader but there was nothing. When I started the car again after only a couple of minutes not running the coolant symbol was gone and never came back even after letting the car iddle for 15mns in hot weather. There is plenty of coolant in the reservoir so it is not a low coolant problem. The fan seems to run fine so I am wondering if there is a sensor somewhere that is sending a wrong message. Any idea?
