A sensor apparatus, which is threadably engaged into the auxiliary drain orifice in the drain pan. The sensor includes a pair of water contact points on a first end, which is on the threaded end of the sensor, so that should fluid or water make contact with the points, it effects a bridge across the points for creating a circuit there across. Upon this occurring, the electrical components contained within the sensor would relay a message through the thermostat wire, to the air conditioning system which would automatically shut the system down. Likewise, there is on the second end of the sensor a fluid high level indicator light, which would glow when this eventuality occurs. Therefore, when the owner would attempt to restart the system, the system would not reactivate. Therefore, upon inspection of the coils, etc., one could see that the glowing light would mean that there is a water level in the pan which is unacceptable, and therefore the water level would have to be lowered or the pan drained to a point that the is water contacts on the threaded end of the sensor would not be bridged, and therefore the system could return to use.
