The wire on top is for the coolant level sensor and the two down below I beleive are for a coolant temperature sensor but im not sure what it does.

If you don't hook up the coolant level sensor, the buzzer will go off constantly. You can avoid this by grounding the wire, I think, but I would NEVER suggest that. The coolant level sensor could save you from overheating and ruining your engine.

Top sensor on the stock radiator is a coolant level sensor.

The bottom sensor on the driver's side is for cold start.&nbsp This really doesn't need to be installed, as this triggers the 3,000RPM cold-start, which is really unnecessary.

How about we post a reply that has nothing to do with your question that has nothing to do with your topic?

That would be an apple, because a banana has a peel, and there are no bones in ice cream.
