add coolant alarm

im getting this freakin alarm in when i start the car and randomly while im driving but my coolant level is at full and my temps are normal on the stock guage and the PFC. where is this alarm generated (where is the sensor) and how can i shut it off/fix it? oh and the alarm shuts off once the car is warmed up and i start driving. 94 touring model btw. fluidyne radiator, aluminum ast are only cooling mods. no fluid leakage that i can see (no puddles under car)

Well, I'm not 100% sure on FD's, but probably the top of the rad end tank.

Sounds like you have air in the system to me...

it's on the front of the water neck if that helps.

it's a white (clear?) plug, then changes to a black plug over by the a/c, oil level, p/s, and coils hook up.

grounding the wire should turn it off, but before you do that, make sure you double check to make sure you're not leaking/burning coolant. it's annoying, but if you disabe it and have a problem, you'll be kicking yourself.
