Mine's the same- plugged in & i have "check coolant level". Like Geoff says try the wire in the plug, if this works try some Caustic Soda or Cola in the exspansion tank, this sometimes works. Leave it in for a few hours to clear all the crap away from the sensor. Though it didn't work on mine  Sad, but cheaper than a new tank  Wink
