Actually, there are two sensors, one on each side of the saddle tank. The right one has the switch that turns on that light. Check this site: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?model=CC03&mospid=47493&btnr=16_0211&hg=16&fg=15

There is a need to find the root failure for this issue, is it the sender?
