July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Temperature Indicator

With ignition on, light should come on. If not, check bulb, then check circuit from ignition switch to bulb. If light stays on with ignition on and coolant temperature less than 249°F (121°C), disconnect wire from temperature switch. If light goes out, replace switch. If light stays on, check for short circuit in wiring between temperature switch and indicator bulb.
