the water temp sensor is on the waterpump. the low coolant light on the dash is connected to the low coolant sensor. it is a common problem for this sensor to get dirty or mess up. just check the coolant level. this is where the sensor in question is at

If your coolant level is good, then either replace or unplug the level sensor to extinguish the light.

Sensor is located on engine side of radiator, directly below the cap. Rectangular body with a wire clip holding it in place.
