If the leak is on the engine it could be the water pump.

SOURCE: how to replace a coolant level sensor, 2000 buick century

The coolant level sensor is located on the radiator. If you are looking at the engine from the front of the car it will be on the left side. There will some kind of clip holding it in the radiator. Removed the clip and pull the sensor out. You will lose coolant so try to swap it out quick or drain some of the coolant out. Once new sensor is installed, install clip to keep the sensor in place and reconnect the wires to the sensor. Crank the engine and make sure the coolant level is full. This should correct your problem.

SOURCE: antifreeze/coolant leaking from under passenger side dash

If it's your heater core, unless you're a mechanic you probably should get professional help. The heater core is located on the firewall and many parts need to be replaced to get to it. Do you see water on the floor inside the vehicle, Many times a heater core will leak inside.

SOURCE: coolant leak 1998 buick external

it sounds like the water pump may be leaking beacuse when runnung the seal is lubricated and may not be leaking at that time but when left over night the seal in the water pump contract and starts to leak. check for stains and leaks with a mirror before starting in the morning i think you will find that it is leaking. don't worry they are not bad to change. good luck

SOURCE: How do I replace broken 2002 buick century passenger side mirror?

On the inside trim, you can remove screws that are by the door handle, arm rest, under door and side of door and then gently pull back on the panel as there will also be retaining clips attached and you don't want to break them. You'll need to lift the door panel upwards in order to get it off the window ledge. Then you'll need to manipulate the panel and disconnect the door handle linkage from the door handle and disconnect the wiring for your controls. Then you can access the bolts that secure the mirror onto the door

freeze plugs are normally on the sides of the engines, check to see if hose connected to thermostat housing is not leaking, and also check to see if coolant is coming from the water pump.

How to reset low coolant sensor on 1999 buick century

Your cooling sensor is in the white plastic coolant tank that is on your firwall under the hood. If you fill it with coolant and the light continues to stay on. try and slap it a few times and see if that resets it. it could be gunked up. if that doesnt work fill the tank with radiator flush and let it sit for a little while and then flush the tank and refill with coolant.

Blower motor fan works on high setting only. I think resistor is bad but i can not locate where resistor goes. blower motor under passenger side glove box,cant seem to locate resistor. Also seen water on...

The resistors are located in the firewall just above the blower motor. they have a heavier gadge wire going to it. As for the water if it is not antifreeze then you have a leak in your cowl area by the lower windshield. I ran in to this problem on several gm cars such as yours it can be deficult to find good luck

My buick is releasing steam vapor though the vest and is leaking in the car from the dash, what could it be? and also it is leaking from underneth the passenger side.

Your heater core needs to be replaced. It's located on the passenger side , under the dash. The heater core is like a small radiator. Coolant from the engine is circulated through it, and that is what provides heat in the car. The heater core is leaking, causing the 'vapor' through the vents, and leaking on the carpet on the passenger side. Heater cores are a pain to remove and replace, it's quite a labor intensive job.

Passenger side floor board is wet.

Hi Big,

Heater core is on the passenger side under the dash.

Are your coolant levels low?

Start your engine and set the heater on high. This allows circulation through the core. Now check for leaks. Place a paper towel or two on the floor. This will allow you to see the color of whatever is leaking. (e.g. antifreeze)

Fogging will only occur when there is a temperature differential of more than one or two degrees between the inside and outside of the vehicle.

Best regards,
Mike

Buick 1999 century replaced the sensor light and still comes on.

your buick century has a low coolant level sensor located in the passenger side of the radiator , sometiomes the sensor get covered with coolant sludge and will show that the cooling system is not filled , sometime the radiator is just still low on coolant . check the radiator when the engine is cold ( IF HOT WAIT !!! 30 mins ) and make sure the level is above the sensor.
