typ44 TQ coolant warning light puzzle.....

[JordanVw@aol.com]

the problem still persists..  on my '86 5kTQ, the coolant warning light comes 
on in the autocheck display, approx 1 minute after everytime i start the car. 
 car running normal temp. not overheating. coolant level normal. 
i unplugged the female socket from the coolant level switch at the bottom of 
the expansion tank, and jumpered the 2 wires on the female socket together, 
with a paperclip.   the light still didnt go out. (if the prob was in the 
switch, the light would have gone out if i jumpered the wires together, 
right?)
could the computer/clock in the console have something to do with it?
any more info would be appreciated...
