Low Coolant Light
Hey guys i searched and found a lot of people with the same issues as i am having but no solution. My Coolant is all the way to the top but it's an orange coolant not pink. Also when i lift the sensor cap on top of the coolant reservoir it is a sticky burnt orange. Any ideas of how to fix this? i can drive the car for about a minute before the Indicator light comes on.
Thanks,

Well toyota coolant is pink..you might have the GM one (it's orange), some people here swear by toyota but idk. There's some long long long debates about fluids if you do a search.
If your fluid level is ok then the sensor could just be dying. I pulled mine out of my SC400 since it is also a common leaking spot. Try reseting your ECU (unplug your battery for a min) and see if it comes back. Keep an eye on your temp guage
