The sensor is a simple switch that is grounded when the level is proper. Unplugging it will cause the light to come on. Jumping the connector to ground should turn the light off.

Because it would be unsettling to see the light come on and off when cornering or braking hard, the signal is dampened in the gauge. I forget the strategy but it won't come right on. It could take 20 seconds or so.
