I have an Omega MV6 2000 new face lift model, just bought it. The computer complains about two things:

Coolant Level - when its fine, toped up to the level for cold, been like that for two weeks, has NOT gone down any.

Washer Level - this again has been toped up to the full. And works.

What I dont understand is why the dumb computer still thinks that the washer and coolant level's are both low?

What can I do to resolve this - any ideas? Try resetting the computer? Are Vauxhalls renound for this error message in the new models?

Taa.

Try checking the sensors in the caps of the coolant bottles, cant be anything complicated...

Dont know much about them.

How do I check the sensors - is it easy?

Advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I have taken the lid off the coolant tank - the sensor is in there?

If you cover no more than 100 miles per day and have easy access to a charging point at home or work, then an EV is ideal for you.

Is an electric car right for me?
