The level sensor is built into the header tank. A new tank is your only real cure - about £30 IIRC  :y

The sensor might just be stuck. Try prodding gently on the float inside the tank to get it moving.

Failing then then a replacement tank is necessary.

I had some success by cleaning the whole thing in a bucket of mild-ish  ::) caustic. I still ended up replacing it.  :y
