possibly break in continuity of system check the multipin connector under dash. then get your multimeter out and try and find where those volts are going astray.

Hi, I had a similar problem but the other way round; the light wouldn't stop flashing and the gauge always read high. The levels were all OK, and the header tank sensor was fine. I eventually traced it to the multiplug which is under the dashboard. All the connections were dirty which I cleaned up and once reassembled, all worked fine including the dashboard lights which had also stopped working.
Cheers,Neil
