I get that light on periodically also.. If you have full coolant, then most likely it's the sensor that's faulty, or a bad connection to the sensor..

The low coolant sensors are common problems. I believe the sensor is right below the filler neck on the radiator. Just drain some coolant out of the radiator and replace the sensor.

Correct, I Have Had 3 Forth Gens, And All Have Required A New Sensor

You dont even have to replace it man. It gets coroded (i cant spell but u know what i mean). Carefully clean the tip of the sensor with a wire brush and re-install. 99% sure it will fix it. If not, its a bad sensor all together.

I replaced mine once on my camaro, but Its still worth it to have. I'd rather replace it once in 140k miles than not have it. GM removed it form the LS1's. Oh well, I can fix my car though. Most people don't tinker.
