Dear Listees: I'm hoping someone can help me with the following problem. The red LED in the temperature gauge will not stop flashing after I turn on the ignition/start engine. The temp gauge itself works fine and the seat belt buzzer/light times out after 3 seconds as it should. I have replaced the

instrument pod and compared the coolant level switch (in the expansion tank) and the coolant sensor (next to temp sensor II) with known good ones with my ohm meter and they seem fine. The "coolant low level warning sensor module" (relay marked #43 on firewall) was found to have a burned resistor internally and was replaced. I have also tracked down a broken ground wire to the firewall and original instrument pod had some burned out resistors and tachometer. Does anybody have any ideas? Please resond to my e-mail address. Thanks!!!
