I know this seems too simple but ........  Last year when I was flushing my
cooling system, I encountered the same problem. Drove me nuts until I
realized that I had not touched anything but the coolant so I added more
coolant than the accepted level. The warning symbol disappeared and has
never re-appeared. I know that you have done a lot of work that would seem
to be problematic but because it disappeared and then re-appeared, just as
mine did, it could be the solution. Before you start tearing into the
cooling system, overfill your coolant filler tank and let me know. You can
always siphon it out if it doesn't work.
