I have seen the warning lights on my 98 SL2 blink on and off a few times while driving and then go off. The temp is fine and the fluid levels are normal? Does anyone know what would cause this? I have 190000 miles on the car.
Could be the reserve reservoir -- there's a "mark" close to the top of the bottle, when the fluid doesn't flow over that mark, the light will appear, even though you far from "blowing an engine".
I agree with JJ that it could be the coolant level indicator. As I recall, this indicator is orange or yellow and looks somewhat like la radiator symbol. Otherwise, you need to be more specific with which indicator you are seeing.
