The "Low Coolant" light in my 2000 Monte carlo keeps coming on when I start up the vehicle and stays on. The coolant level is fine.

I tried disconnecting the battery for about five minutes and reconnecting but the light still comes on. Is there a special way to reset the computer or any other suggestions on how to get this light from unnecessarily coming on

'Resetting the PCM is not going to fix what's broken. Diagnose the cause of
the light coming on. Possibly a bum level sensor on the right hand side of
the radiator.
