Welcome to the forum. The guy at the counter probably said it could be caused by "low coolant level." What exactly was the code?

Default 2001 silverado 1500 service engine light

My light is on, Auto Zone said low coolant level, it;s normal, will a low windshield washer level turn light on ?

What light? Low coolant light? service engine soon will not come on specifically for low coolant unless the low coolant caused another problem. It defiantly will not come on for low washer fluid.
