Radiator light

My MK1 radiator warning light on the dashboard wont go off despite being full of coolant. I'm assumng the sensor might be faulty? Am i on the right track and if so, where is it located?

Thanks in advance guys!

Re: Radiator light

Plastic expansion tank above engine under the bonnet, if not wiring problem, actual sensor is well hard to remove.
Fairly easy job, to take the whole tank off (disconnected first) and give it good clean with warm water, Fairy liquid and if you have- handful of plastic pellets, if not old tooth brush.
