flashing coolant light on dash

[tatsmy03_a4]

hi everyone, just recent my 03 a4 1.8t waterpump went out on me. i got the car towed home and did the diy water pump/timing belt change. after i got done and everything works. but when i took the car around the block to make sure it doesnt over heat i notice the coolant light flashes on the cluster. coolant is at the max on the coolant tank.


could it be the coolant temp sensor?? i dont have any check engine codes.

You sure your temp sensor is plugged in? Maybe u disconnected it when u worked on it. Done it before on my s4

on the bottom of the coolant tank you will find a plug for the level sensor.

plug it in


(you most likely disconnected it to change the oil filter while doing a oil change with your other work).
