Why would Coolant warning light come on in '97 vw jetta and then go off intermittently?

well let me ask you a couple questions and you will see where im going with this...
a.) is the car parked on an incline/ decline?
b.) how much coolant is in the bottle?
it could be 2 things, either there is not enough coolant in the bottle that when you drive, or when parked on a hill that the coolant isn't regestering in the sensor. it could also be a faulty sensor (ive had to replace mine due to this same problem on a 2000 getta). so those are the two things you might want to check before you go and deal with a shop and pay 100+ bucks for them to tell you what im telling you, and then more money for labor..its a quick replacement if you get the sensor either online or at a deal (car-stuff.com or even autopartswarehouse.com has helped me on few projects so check there).
