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
