Add Coolant Light/Beeping Noise!!! NEed HELP!!! PLS

Hello, People!! I just got my car back from the shop. They replaced all the wiriing harnesses in the Car and now a lot of my electronic accesories are not working.
Light wont come down, fog light, electric mirrors, defrost, ETC

And even since there is this anoying buzzard with the Add Cooland Light that is On All The time. Is annoying and the dealer cant figure it out. We think the dealer has plugged the wires in the wrong places and is causing all of these things to malfunction.

Yesterday, Dan, The guy at C-tech in MD replaced my coolant sensor and checked if everything was okay in my cooling system and everything seems okay, but even with the new sensor. the light and the buzzard will not go off.

I need help!! Does anybody know how to kill that sound while the dealer traces the problem! i really cant stand driving for 40 minutes everyday with that anoying sound. I need to either disconnected from the ECU or from the speaker or whatever makes that noise beep.

Has anybody done this before?? Please let me know so i can shut the damn thing down at least until they find why is beeping.
Thanks
Saul V

please does anybody know where i can turn off the beeping out of the add coolant noise. i believe is the same one that warns when your lights are on or if your doors are open when you first get in.
i need to shut the damn thing down before i end up tearing up the dashboard to find it.

The low coolant sensor establishes a ground through the coolant. Just ground the sensor to something and it should shut up.

The sensor is not what the problem is though. Is the ECU is not plugged in properly to the wires. We have put a new sensor which should have fixed the problem, I have to shut the damn thing off. I need to know how to get to that buzzard behind the dashboard and unplugged somehow.

This might give you some help... I was looking through my Manual and I think this might help you to trace the wires back to the harness. Maybe you can run a wire from the coolant pin to the ground. Just trying to give you some ideas...
