Now the cooling light comes on and off
sometimes! Just had new anitafreez put in today!
Still coming on! The car  in running spot on! Is it
just a forty wire?

What is a forty wire? You may have a dirty radiator or may need a new thermostat. Did you flush the engine and radiator out before installing new coolant? Also make sure you bleed all the air out of the system by idling the car parked facing up hill with the radiator cap off.

My coolant light stays on no matter where i have the level. Had it diagnosed, no problems, just a pain to see that red light.
