I had a new radiator fitted recently, after the guy installed it a stop light appeared on my dash, the temps are normal when I drive [90 when warmed up] so do you think this is most likely just a sensor issue?

Thanks.

probably the coolant level sensor, either not plugged in or stuck.

Is it the far right one on this diagram?

Also would it be ok to disconnect all three of these sensors on that section to check them?

The blue one is the one to check and it would be okay to disconnect the others to check them also.

you would probably get an air lock in the system if you took them out I would think Unsure

surely they are only temp sensors not level checks? Did phase 2 cars have an extra sensor on the rad? Mine has a blanking plate near the bleed point Unsure

It's been two years and I've still not checked the sensors, a combination of procrastination and not really using the car.

So, would it be ok to remove the blue sensor without getting an airlock? The warning light came on after a mechanic changed the radiator over two years ago. Unsure I have read it could also be related to the fan. My car is a phase one and it has a manual fan operated by a switch to the right of the steering wheel.
