No its supposed to be that way. It makes contact when It's hot. Basically a thermal switch. It detects coolant by virtue of the temperature. Basically if that sensor is immersed in coolant, you have enough.

Take the plug off the sensor, and jump it with a wire. It should turn the light in the dash off...
