Which/what box -- the coolant expansion tank?  If so, yes, clean or
replace.  Sometimes the o-ring doesn't seal when replacing, so prolly
should ask Bus Depot for a new O-ring first.  They also sell the probe
assembly for fairly cheap ( ~$10?).

Of course, if your expansion tank is actually half empty, then the little
boy is not crying wolf after all...
