Question: Temperature signal and temperature gauge

Question

The (red) signal is flashing intermittently, but the gauge says my motor is just at normal temperature, what's wrong you think?

    Check the coolant level, make sure it's right. If you accelerate hard while the engine is cold the light will flash also.

    I appreciate this answer, I will look on for the coolant level. Could it be that the signal is defective too? Can this little red flashing (annoying) heating signal be defective too?
