Engine Coolant Temperature Indicator Not Operating Properly

NOTE: After making any repairs, perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST  under VERIFICATION TESTS.
  1. Perform self-test on instrument cluster. Press and hold TRIP/RESET button and turn ignition on. If engine coolant temperature indicator does not turn on for 4 seconds then turn off, go to step  3 . If engine coolant temperature indicator turns on for 4 seconds then turns off, go to next step.
  2. Using scan tool, check for DTCs. If any DTCs are present, diagnose by DTC. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE IDENTIFICATION  table under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. If no DTCs are present, go to next step.
  3. Remove instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Remove and inspect Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) warning indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) for shorts or opens. Replace ECT warning indicator LED as necessary. If ECT warning indicator LED is okay, diagnose EMIC and indicator circuit. See ANALOG INSTRUMENT PANELS - SEBRING CONVERTIBLE, SEBRING SEDAN & STRATUS SEDAN article.
