Coolant Level Sensor

[Missynjacob Will]

Hey friends, purchased a 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 LS V8. I was informed that the coolant level sensor needed to be replaced if I wanted low coolant light to go off. I read that the overflow tank contains the level "float" for lack of better term, and it could be cleaned. I was removing the tank and noticed a lot of green crud at the sensor connector. I removed the tank and was beginning to clean tank with degreaser when I noticed one of the pins missing at bottom of tank. When I went back to vehicle sure enough the tab was stuck in the connector. I tried removing without success but could also not disconnect the pins so I figured I would just rewire a new connector. Here is the problem. I cannot find the part number nor find it online or in parts store. AutoZone had a similar connector with the wires but seems it is smaller. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I suggest going to a wrecking yard and getting what you need.
