It's supposed to.  If it doesn't stop blinking, that's a problem.  If you
pull the level-sender connection and jumper across it, and the light keeps
on blinking you have three basic choices:  live with it, swap out the temp
gauge, or  repair the temp gauge as I've recently posted.  If you decide on
the third choice and can't find either of my msgs, let me know...
