The low coolant light comes on while driving. I have checked the level in the resevior and it is full and at the proper level. I checked the sensor connection a the bottom of the tank and it appears not to be corroded and the wires are in good condition. Is the sensor bad or is there something else going on? If the sensor is bad, do I have to replace the whole tank?
Thanks

If you have determined the coolant to be at proper level and the wiring to be good then suspect faulty sensor. The tank does not need replaced to replace the sensor. Below is some purchasing information I have found for you via AutoZone's website.
