2014 Subaru Forester engine coolant light.

10

Asked by Bachmann1 May 19, 2019 at 11:20 PM about the 2014 Subaru Forester 2.5i

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Here is the sequence: the coolant light flashes red, then flashes red and blue.
As the red and blue are flashing the check engine light comes on and the
traction light comes on. Then the coolant light flashes red and the traction light
goes out but the check engine light stays on. When the coolant light goes out
the check engine light stays on. After starting the vehicle several times the
check engine light goes out. Then after driving, sometimes for a few days the
whole thing repeats itself.

I need the trouble codes. Take it by a car parts store and ask them to read the codes. You should check the coolant level before you drive it again.

Code was coolant temp sensor. I replaced it but the problem continues. Coolant level is full.
