The float sensor in the coolant bottle could be bad.

One would assume that you checked the coolant level in the overflow bottle and not just removing the radiator cap to check the coolant level in the engine.

If the overflow bottle is dry/low then the sensor is working correctly and you need to add coolant to the overflow bottle.
