WIF Light

I have a 2002 F350 7.3L and the Water in Fuel light comes on occasionally. It will either come on at startup or running X-way speeds especially when hauling. Drained the separator several times and changed filter. Is there anything else I can do or will I need to change the sensor?
Thanks
Gary

If you have good fuel, drained the bowl and filter and it still does it then replace the sensor. My dad's 2000 has the bolts that hold the heater in the bottom of the bowl rot off for some reason and I guess it hit the sensor and caused it to keep coming on. A trip to the hardware store for some stainless screws and a good cleaning and all is good six years later
