54–02 Coolant Level Sensor
Cleaning
1. Drain enough coolant from the radiator to expose
the coolant level sensor.
2. Disconnect wire 173 from the sensor in the ra-
diator surge tank. Remove the sensor from the
surge tank.
3. Using a fine-grit sandpaper, clean the sensor
until the metal is exposed. Clean the tapped hole
with a wire brush.
4. Install the sensor (do not seal the sensor threads
with tape), and reconnect wire 173. Fill the cool-
ing system to the proper level.
5. Start the engine. The LOW WTR light and warn-
ing buzzer should be off. If the light and buzzer
are off, the sensor is okay. If the light and buzzer
are on, replace the sensor.
