I dont have a manual i have a Haynes or w/e and trying to find anything in that book is like looking for a leprechaun in Japan.

Its not on all the time, it usually only turns on when i dont have the time to let it warm up. I cant find any pictures of it on the internet and i cant find my digital camera. all i can say is that it only turns on when im in a hurry and give ita next to no time to warm up and its an arrow pointing at some liquid inside a box lol. I can use paint to illustrate.

I had something similar with my mustang. the icon wasnt exactly the same, but there was an arrow and a thingey kinda like that, but mine was yellow. anyways, it was a sensor going bad in the radiator. I asked around, turns out its a sensor whose only job is to..... go bad... and turn on a light... or something retarded. i drove the car around for several months with no problem until it eventually broke down..... by being smashed by a semi. come to think of it... it was a liquid hauling semi. the downward arrow could mean "squished" and the rest of the icon might indicate the method. watch out for any semi's or giant chemical beakers.

OK one more thing.. lol... Every now and then upon start up it will sound like its struggling but a quick tap on the gas and it will fire up and run normally... Ive also noticed that at idle i rev around 500 rpms.. not sure what to make of all this.. could my cold start up be a idle control valve goin? Ive got a brand new ignition switch so i know that aint it.
