Which sensor causes the "add coolant" light/buzzer

I have bled the system of air and have full oil.

My buzzer and add coolant light stay on full time.

After my recent engine install, I had to replace a few sensor wires which were brittle or broken while taking the engine out.

The lower oil sensor had to be replaced, the lower radiator sensor as well. There is a sensor in the top of the radiator which broke, but i have been unable to replace due to my after market radiator. Is the top radiator sensor the one that causes the light/buzzer?

My oil temp sender is no longer connected to the harness. Not sure if that makes a difference or not. I am using a mechanical gauge.

Anyway, thanks for the help in advance.

Yeah, the sensor in the top of the radiator. There's one brown wire that goes to it. IF that wire is put to gnd, then the buzzer/light go out in a second or less.
