I would disconnect your battery and see if the computer reset's it.

I'd check the owner's manual and see what all the 'Low coolant' light staying on could mean.

'00 & up cars don't have that sensor

Try filling up the reservoir, then try wiggling the sensor... If that doesn't work, replace the sensor.

You can also just disconnect the sensor.
