Default '99 A6 Quattro LED display high temp

Just finished replacing the cam cover gaskets. Topped off all the fluids and at start-up the LED high temp warning beeps and blinks even though the engine is cold as a stone and the analog thermometer is on 60c. I did this repair work over several weekends with the front end on ramps and the front bumper off of the car. Did I miss a wiring connection somewhere?

You probably forgot to hook up the connector on the bottom of the coolant reservoir, which you had to remove to access the rear nuts for the valve cover on the driver side.
