Can someone tell me why I get an intermittent blinking light at my temp gage.
This only happens in the early a.m. when the temperature outside is below 70 degrees F. During my ride home with temperature above 70 degerees the blinking light is no longer present. I have checked my owners manual and checked the level of my coolant and it is where it should be. The only other recommendation from the manual is to check for blockage . I have done that also. They also refer to an auxillary fan . If the fan was not functioning properly would it not make more sense for the light to go on in the p.m. when the temperature was greater than 70 degrees? Can someone answer me?
