Coolant Temp Light
My friend has a 09' Fit Sport and says her coolant temp light keeps coming on every time she starts the car and stays on for a minute or two. I mostly work on domestic makes (mostly GM's) out of my house as a hobby. My first thought would be that the ECTS isn't working properly but I'm not that well versed with foreign makes. Is this a normal thing with the Fit or is there actually something going on and if so what troubleshooting steps could I do to figure it out so she won't have to take the car into a shop to get it fixed.

Normal, that just lets you know the car isn't warmed up yet.

Even after the engine has been warm'd up from driving?

I would have but she is out of town and doesn't really understand much about cars, so that why I asked. Thank you for the help though.

yah, it's odd to most folks that dont have Fits cause most cars usually have a water temp guage, not a light that appears to be an error light.

I think blue temp light means engine is under temperature, red indicates over temperature. idjit lights :(
