Default mini check, red water level/temp light

is now staying on constantly

all the way to south bend, all the rounds at the rally, and all the way back. constantly on

temp is excellent, since my radiator cleaning the temp doesnt pass the first thick bar, coolant level is good....

what could be throwing that warning?

Bad sensor/wiring on the bottom of the reservior tank?

Possible bad MFTS?

Default No...

the MFTS is located on the bottom of the coolant flange coming out of the head...

It's the big sensor.

The fan switch you mentioned is a completely different thing...
