Eric and Richard,

The original post is in last weeks archive.

This is the original message of this thread from Frank Condelli:

     Here’s one for the books.  My coolant light has just started acting
weird.  It will come on after about 10 ~ 15 minus of driving and stay on, no
flash just a steady on !  Never in all my years of working on these vans
have I ever seen this phenomena !  Anybody have an idea what is causing this
?  Temp needle is in its normal place, no over heating, engine and coolant
temps checked with infrared thermometer.  If the engine is shut off then
back on the light goes out for several minutes then it comes back on.

Cheers,

Frank Condelli

I sent a previous post with this information but it didn't seem to post.  It
probably will now since I'm repeating most of my note.
Regards,
Ed McLean
