Default Low Coolant ?

I was backing out of my driveway from my garage, turned the heater way up, stopped at my mailbox to get mail, when I got back in the "LOW COOLANT" message was on my DIC.

I checked: level was okay, squeezing both upper and lower hoses moved coolant in tank, color of antifreeze was okay (no air contamination), antifreeze percentage was okay.

I have seen this subject posted before, anyone figure out what is the cause?

The sensor is bad, IMHO. You can unplug it and it will go away or change it.
