are you running low on water?  if it wont go of and your low on coolant fill it up with the engine running let it run a little put some more in but dont over fill it, turn it off give it a minute or 2 start it up check your water level again  if need be add more.. if the light stays on you've either got a hugh whole somewhere witch will be evident buy the huge puddle under the car...if none of the above help then you must have a dodgey sencor most likely in the expanstion bottle or something..

hope it helps................dave

Oh yes dear boy, only the British English dictionary will suffice, none of these infantile so called English speaking colonists English around here. That is just unthinkable. Just the thought of it makes me feel ill.
