I disconnected the connector to the coolant sensor and the light went off. Real progress! Thanks

Now I need to figure out why the circuit is closed with the connector attached and full on coolant, but that should easy now that I understand the system logic.
Yeah, this is old! Sold the car years ago, never did figure it out. Just left it disconnected. Still see that car driving around tho! New owner is definitely in over his head.... Explained oil changes to him and he said he would just let the dealer do it. This from a guy with 3 teens/tweens, a tiny house and college on the way.
