Low Coolant Light Warning

My Low Coolant light comes on only when I exceed 45 MPH and goes off when I drop below that speed. It seems very strange to me that this happens.
Does anyone know what is wrong?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thx,
Cory

I'm going to assume you checked your coolant and its not low. In any case that sensor is finicky. My Low Coolant light has been on for 9 months and its not low. Its a bad sensor and I've been to lazy to do anything about it. If you want to check it out, its located on the left side of the radiator about 6 inches under the cap. It's square and if you drain your coolant down past where its plugged in you can pop it out and give it a cleening. I've heard that can get it back to normal status. Or just replace it.

If it is a bad sensor I can understand it. But why would it consistently come on only at higher speeds?
