Default Low coolant light on??

Yesterday my low coolant light came on. The level seems fine, and I added some just to make sure. However, after about 5 min of driving, it comes back on. the days are hot h ere, and I'm having no trouble keeping it cool. What could cause this?

The sensor went bad. If the coolant level is good, you can spend $40 to replace the sensor, or for free just unplug it and the light will go away.

they fucked up ont the design

you can take out the sensor clean the threads and body of the sensor... put it back in and it will be ok for a while then you'll have to do it again or you can just do like me and ignore it.
