VW Polo temperature light flashing fixed.
The Temperature blinks red and there is a beeping alarm too, 3 long beeps.
Seeing the coolant temperature RED warning while driving can be easy to fix
but it can also be a big problem.
Learn how to figure it out if your engine is failing or if it's a simple fix and if it's safe or not to drive home.

Showing this on my Volkswagen Polo 9N but this can be used on any car.
If this doesn't make the temp light go away, check the resistance between the coolant expansion tank sensor terminals.
You might have to replace the coolant expansion tank and it's a good idea to flush and replace the coolant too while doing this.
Any questions?

I checked the coolant level and it was below minimum so I refilled it. Could this mean I have a mechanical problem? As the coolant level was low?

Hi! Hi have the same Car, polo 9n. A month ago I removed the battery from the machine to be able to recharge it since with the lockdown and the little use, it was discharged. Today I resinserted the battery. Then I turned on the car and started. After a few seconds it emitted 3 beeps and the red temperature light started to flash. The liquid cool is ok and is slightly above the minimum level. I topped it up but the situation hasn't changed. I went around and the temperature hand is fixed at 90 degrees and I don't smell strange smells. I opened the hood and there are no signs of various vapors. It seems strange to me that the problem arose after removing and reinserting the battery. In February it was fine. Tomorrow I try with the WD-40. Can you tell me where the resistance is so I check this too? Thanks so much!
@IONHowTo
@IONHowTo 4 года назад
Check for corrosion between the connector pins like in the video. Resistance also depends on what coolant mix you have. WD40 is a good start.

@IONHowTo
@IONHowTo 3 года назад
Check the connector to the expansion tank. Also use a mix of coolant and tap water. Distilled water can give a confusing reading. Had some strange behaviour with distilled water. The probes measure the lebel with how electricity is being conducted in the coolant fluid. Try a obd2 reading maybe more info there.

Get the leak fixed. If the leak is in the radiator and not big you can try to use leak stop products - video coming up sometime this month hopefully. If its in the coolant pump or hoses the parts need to be replaced. Coolant is bad for animals around, look it up.

It could be the coolant mix or a bad contact in the dashboard. If the level is ok, try to change the coolant and mix the original pink coolant fluid for this engine with TAP water not distilled water - instructions on bottle for ratios.

Someone was saying it may be a bad contact on the dashboard but I don't know about that. I had it come up again after using distilled water instead of tap water to mix with antifreeze. It measures fluid conductivity. I guess this is why they say use tap water. Could have been a temporary instrument cluster problem. Now I don't have the warning light.

So it runs a bit lean. I have used maybe 4 bottles of fuel injector cleaner but it doesnt work. So i think i might have to replace them. But heres the problem. Im an ape when it comes to wrenching.

@IONHowTo
@IONHowTo 4 года назад
If I were you, I'd find a place that does ultrasonic cleaning. It might work if they don't charge too much. If you do run cleaner thru them it's best to use a kit that is made to connect directly to the fuel rail. DO NOT just put cleaner in the fuel tank. That will bring even more dirt from the fuel tank into the injectors. The fuel is under pressure so fuel pump fuse needs to be removed and it has a pressure release valve but to actually remove individual injectors from the rail... I'm not sure I can help with that.

If it's blinking in less than 1-2m after you start the car it's ok - it's the sensor and level is ok. That light can also blink if the engine is overheating so check the temperature dial and check the oil dipstick make sure it's at normal level and doesn't look foamy or creamy like mayo. Or take it to a mechanic to sort it out for you.
