Hello,

If your coolant is at correct level but you are still getting the low coolant light, then its probably the coolant level sensor. That sensor is located in the coolant reservoir.
Replacement can be done easily.
Only work on the cooling system when the engine is cool.
Remember when you take out the sensor the remaining coolant will drain out of the reservoir.
