By coolant gauge low do you mean the amount of coolant in your vehicle is low? If so it may say that your engine is getting too hot due to slim to no coolant left in the tanks, which causes your engine to heat too high.
wat i ment is that my temperature gauge wen i turn on the truck the gauge goes all the way to 260 for alittle while then it goes back to 100 and thats wen idle engine low and engine coolant low and then it suddenly goes to normal temperature and starts working fine wat can it be need help in solving this problem
The temp gauge problem is nothing to worry about there r two diff thermostat for the trailblazer a low temp and a high temp thermostat. I was curious about it as well i have a 2004 trailblazer does the same thing.
Its say check gauges go all the way to 260 what do that mean
That means your engine is too hot and shut it down. I got that message when I blew the water pump. New water pump installed. TB back in beast mode with no issues at 410,000.
