+1 to Derekcat, it would be useful to know if your coolant is low as well as if you have low oil in your engine...
The coolant sensor on the top of the radiator just needs to be grounded, the oil level essentially the same thing...

Like W0ppe said, you just ground out the connectors..
But I'd still suggest you keep them intact, they're perhaps even more useful on a race car. Wouldn't you want to know when you loose oil or coolant during a race? Much more likely to burst a hose if you're applying extreme stress.

It's hard to drive and look at every gauge in the car. The annoying buzzer will MAKE you pay attention. It only takes seconds for a blown water or oil line to nuke an engine.

Strange, because normally in track cars things like big warning buzzers are installed instead of removed. You have to interpret a gauge by looking at it, but when a big warning horn goes off it grabs your attention and you can pull over before the engine pumps all oil from the broken cooler line (takes about 3 seconds). Many of my friends have saved engines at the track because of the warning buzzers, not because of a gauge.
It's trivial to fix the problem anyway (probably just a disconnected coolant temp sensor or bubbles around it).

Since were on the subject......My add coolant buzzer has been going off non stop but only when I am parked on a steep hill facing uphill. My levels are good and I'm running normal temp. Thinking there is an air pocket in the system so how do I get rid of it?

Thinkin you got the wrong cap which is VERY common or you got a slow seep. Every spring mine goes off, I fill it a couple times and the rest of the year its good. Ive got a very slow leak on the bottom rad hose, when it gets about 20 below it leaks a little.

opposite for the oil level sender. if you want to disable the oil level alarm/light simply leave the wire unplugged to the float in the pan. when the oil level gets low, that sender grounds out.
