The warning LED on my temp gauge(located over the clock) has never blinked
when turning on the ignition like it should.  I recently installed a new
"coolant low level switch" (located on the expansion tank), thinking that
might be the problem. No such luck.  The wiring diagram for the 85 shows a
"coolant low level warning control unit" between the expansion tank switch
and the dash--anyone know where this might be located?  Maybe stuck up under
the dash?
In the meantime, I will look for a replacement coolant temp gauge from the
junkyard as the LED itself is integrated into the gauge.  Is the same gauge
used in other VW's?
TIA
