coolant sensor repair

Postby manny » 02 May 2014 11:08

HI all,

i recall reading an article (US?) on repairing\replacing some of the electronic components ( as my coolant light was always on) within the coolant sensor-- but i cant seem to Google for it anymore-- i may have been directed by someone on the forum....anyone recall such an article??

Cheers

Manny

Are you thinking of the Wedge Lab article?

You obviously understand electronics[:)]
