There is a little electronic device on the Bentley diagram that looks like a flasher, connected in parallel with the LED. This device looks like the one that does the blinking, when signals trigger it. Such signals of course are from low coolant detection devices. I believe this flasher will automatically do a few seconds of blinking upon power on when the ignition key is turned on. If the LED continues to blink after powering up the flasher may be defective. If everything else appears to be working OK take a look at this device in the instrument cluster. It is a possibility only of course. If you have a spare cluster if will be a quick check by plugging it in.
