My Low Coolant Light Won't Go Away
My Low Coolant Light Won't Turn Off. I Have Plenty Of Coolant In The System, I Assume It's The Sensor. Where Is The Coolant Level Sensor, I Heard It's In The Radiator Somewhere. I'm Not Talking About The Coolant Temp Sensor, I Know That's In The Driver Side Head. I Think There Is Another Sensor. Somebody Let Me Know.

I have had this problem on Both my TA and my wifes GTO. On the TA it was the sensor on the GTO the Radiator cap was bad and got replaced under warranty.
The sensor is in the top part of the passenger side of the radiator.

Sometimes you can pull the sensor, clean it out, stick it back in, and it'll work for a while longer. If you find that it's sludged over, though, you might consider getting a coolant flush (not just a drain-n-fill, but a true flush). DexCool likes to sludge up.

Hi Folks
if I am not mistaken, the Low coolant sensor is in the overflow tank. So once the block see low coolant it is too late. The overflow tank has to have some coolant in it.
