Only if the coolant is leaking from the heater core, but you will see this.

Don't know for sure but check in the radiator overflow. Tip: The radiator can be full but if the overflow is low or empty it will trigger the light.

Why does the antifreeze overflow go empty on a 1999 S 10 blazer?

You have a leak in the cooling system. It could be from a number of sources such as, radiator, radiator hoses, heater core, heater hoses, water pump, intake manifold gaskets, head gaskets, cracked heads and probably a few more. Have the cooling system pressure tested to determine where it is leaking from and don't wait.


Why could possibly cause the temperature gauge on a Nissan Maxima to raise after the car is idling for a couple of minutes?

You need to check the radiator and be sure it is full. It can be empty and the overflow tank full. If it is full then check and be sure the radiator cooling is working when the engine is at operating temperature.


How many quarts of coolant for a 69 GMC C 20 with 396 and AC?

There Should Be an overflow, It shows You where to fill it to, and also shows when its too full. With the system completely empty, radiator, heater, engine block and hoses, it should hold 16 to 18 qts of coolant.


How much radiator fluid does a Chevy s10 take when empty?

If the entire system (radiator, engine block and heater system) is empty it will take 11 to 12 qts to refill (this also depends on what engine you have and if it has ac or not). If you only drain the radiator, aprox 5 qts.


Why does a 2001 XLT overheat when ac is on?

I was having the same problem with my 99 explorer. What I discovered was that the overflow tank for the radiator was empty and was causing a false reading by the temp gauge.

More likely it will cause the surrounding decking to shift. Pols usuall "pop" from being empty.


Why Radiator appears empty everyday?

Your radiator appears empty because your cooling system has a leak.


Why does radiator light go on when car is cold but only stays on for 2 minutes?

the light is triggered by a switch inside the overflow bottle, If the coolant level is low when the engine is cold, it will trigger the switch to turn on the light until the cooant warms up and expands. The hot water expands and flows through the radiator cap and into the overflow bottle and shuts the light off. Then once the engine is shut off and cools down, the coolant will flow back into the engine again and empty the overflow bottle. so if the light is on, you need to fill the overflow bottle to the "cold" mark.


What is the Coolant Capacity For 2008 Chevy Cobalt?

Have no heat when you turn on the heater in 1999 Toyota truck?

You may be low on coolant. Check the reservoir and the radiator, if it is empty check for leaks in the system. If it is full you may have a stuck open thermostat causing no heat.
