Are you sure that they are fine? It only needs to be a fraction out on these babies, the sensors are so sensative!

Windscreen wash sensor can get gunged up by folks using cheap additive or washing up liquid ... a good flush through might clean it.

Coolant low sensor just seems to fail, I did manage to clear one for a while by taking the whole header tank out and using a de-scaler, but it only lasted 6 months. New header tank was the decent fix .. :(

Maybe not flush, remove grille and you should see the sensor on washer bottle tank... take out clean off and put back in with white foat facing down as for you coolant sensor maybe 40 as have been know to play up.
Can't buy just the sensor have to buy new coolant bottle but only £25 from you vauxhall outlet  :y
