Ok, for the millionth time on the list, pull the relay "43" (or 42) from
relay socket number 3 of the main fuse/relay panel. If the blinking
problem stops when the relay is out, the fault causing the blinking MUST
be in the coolant level circuit. However if the blinking problem
continues even with the relay out the problem CAN'T BE the coolant level
sensor, it's wires, or the relay.
