mine does the same. I don't worry about it unless I see the gauge creeping up to the hot end. usually stays about half a gauge .

mine flashed until i noticed a small leak in the bottom of the rad (not enough to lose much water or to overheat). swapped rads, light no longer flashed. i think it is triggered by the sender in the 'stat housing, so if you lose a bit of water light flashes.

my Light did that and when the car was hot and i turned off the engine it would piss water out of the header tank at the top. The header tanks collapse inside (so im told) replaced mine for 3 pound from the scrapper now its spot on
