another coolant buzzer problem!

Ok, the coolant buzzer wont go off (coolant light is illuminated). Iv checked the FAQ. Iv bleed for air, and topped it off. Iv checked my oil levels and are full, even checked power steering which is fine. Buzzer still wont go off. It comes on when the key is on the on position (ignition off) after 5 seconds. Im out of ideas, anyone wana throw some out at me? thanks.

to no avail....i tried purging the coolant from the system..and running the engine till it was around the 3/4 mark on the temp gauge. Im assuming this is how to blurp the air pockets that are in the system. filled as FAQs specified. Still the problem persists. The warning buzzer sounds around 15 second when the car is switched to the on position with the ignition off (car off). Stays on when ignition on (car on).

things iv tried:

Checking grounds and connections
purging and refilling coolant
running the car with top and bottom radiator cap off
checked engine oil level are within spec
checked power steering fluid level are within spec
compression checked


Side Note :: Car has never heated to reach over the 3/4 mark...actually no thats not true...i did reach up to 1/2 once but i was low on oil.

you know i had the same problem but i took the ugly way to fix it. I took the wire off the top of the radiator, and cut it then grounded it to the wall of the engine bay......stopped the buzzing.

Its a bad way to fix it but as long as you check your water/coolant often enough, i wouldnt think that you would have a problem.
