Exclamation Coolant Buzzer

i started my fd after changing the plugs and my coolant buzzer started going off. i shut it off and checked the coolant and it was kinda low. i topped it off and started it up again and it kept going off. i shut it off again and it was completly full. i warmed it up, took it for a short drive, and the buzzer was still going off. i let it cool down and checked it and guess what. still full. any ideas what might cause this. when it warmes up tomorrow i will look for a broken wire. i already took a look at the wire directly out of the sensor and it was fine. i'll take a better look tomorrow. any help would be great.

Definitely check to see if your wire has broken itself off. As old as our cars our, the wire harness is definitely a failure spot.

check the harness clip above (around) the plugs. You may have knocked it loose while changing the plugs.
I had a similar problem once I put in a new motor. Seems there are 2 clips on that side that can get mixed up.

i found out what happened . the wire broke off of that clip by the saprk plugs and now i cant find the black and red wire(from the sensor) that went on the clip. i grounded the wire going to the gauge for a temporary fix because i cant find the wire coming from the sensor.
