Low coolant sensor in a SN is on passenger side of radiator. The sensor goes inside coolant resevoir, is attached to cap. Check to see if coolant level is at acceptable level.

Sometimes cleaning the contacts on the sensor in the coolant will help.

Mine does the same thing. Next time I order from latemodelrestoration, I'll get a new one.
