The light wont come on unless its reading low resistance ie low coolant.

According to chilton's, the light comes on when the float doesn't have enough water below it, holding it off of the reed switch, thus closing the circuit and popping on the light..... In other words, the sensor not being plugged in, isn't going to throw the light on....
