if coolant level ok, check the auto fan for function ,by starting the engine,open bonnet and if the fan is movin ,its a auto fan not a mechanical works of PMS signal from ECM.if fan ok then its your coolant light switch fault..........

Found fan turn on for few seconds then off again and on but only real slow and then stops completely and light appears on. It appears to be fan any idea why it is playing up and is it a general problem. Thanks Cliff
