coolant low level sensor

[WillV]

I recently replaced the radiator to my 1997 Montana Trans Sport but the radiator that I ordered didn't have the hole for the coolant level sensor so obviously I didn't connect it. Before I replaced the radiator my van ran fine, but now it shuts off at 5 mins or so. Could it be because I didn't reconnect the coolant level sensor switch. If so, would it be ok if I jumped the connector in case the connector needs to plug to the sensor? Help!

Do you have the old switch, if so just plug it in. I doubt that would cause the problem though, look for something you may have accidentally disconnected like a vacuum line.
