Why is your low coolant light flashing in my 2001 Pontiac grand prix?
On my 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix, the coolant level sensor in the radiator near the battery would get gummed up. You can lower the coolant level in the radiator, remove the battery, and remove the sensor. Clean it and replace the coolant. I was having to do this yearly. One common problem on these Pontiacs is a leaking plastic lower intake manifold gasket set. A small amount of oil can contaminate the coolant and lead to this build up on the sensor and thus the coolant light illuminated. I changed the l.i.m. gaskets on my car with the improved all aluminum replacement gasket set. In my opinion, this is a very good engine but why GM went with these plastic gaskets is beyond me!!

The new manifold is less than $200 and you can do the repair yourself in about 4 hours. There are some detailed, step-by-step instructions at the link below... http://www.autoclinix.com/Manifold.htm I would recommend the Dorman part (available from Autozone, Advance Auto, O'Reilly's, Ebay, etc.) over the Ford replacement part since the Dorman manifold has built-in O-rings and does not require the use of intake gaskets like the Ford part. I've done this repair on 2 cars using the Dorman manifold and it fits perfect and, so far, has held up well. Hope this helps. ...
