Hi all, I brought a 13 plate LWB hightop Crafter a few months ago to do a family van conversion on.
I have been prepairing things ready to start this conversion an have been running the engine once a week just to keep the battery topped up. Today I started the van and 10 to 15 seconds after running a red radiator sign came on the dash and couple of warning bleeps happened I immediately stopped the van and checked for coolant leaks and checked to see if the reservoir was low on coolant, it wasn't but topped up to max anyway.
I then started the van up again and same as before 15 seconds later the red radiator sign came back on. I am really concerned that something bad happend. I drove the Crafter 100 miles from the place I brought it from and had no problems at all and when I did the weekly starts I never ran for more than 5 mins. It has me puzzled because the vans engine isn't even over heated its cold.
Any advice on where to look and what possible problems to look for.
Thanks.
