Hello, experts!

Something new and different, for me anyway.  '84 Westy 1.9.  I've been
driving it pretty regularly, but last week it sat while I took a different
rig down to California.  Today I got back to Klamath County and the snow and
ice, where the temps got down to around 18 Fahrenheit while I was gone.  Did
a checkup and took off for the Willamette Valley, all is well.

But near Creswell I heard a buzzing...  What was that?  Later I noticed that
it was the seat belt buzzer, buzzing as if I had just started the engine!
Later still, we me now more attentive, I noticed that the temperature LED
also blinked temporarily, just as if first starting the engine.  After dark
in downtown Eugene I noticed that when this happens, the radio light blinks
out, then the radio boots up, the blinker blinks and the buzzer buzzes.
This is happening fairly frequently now - what's up?  Anybody experienced
this before?

Matt
