What causes the red light on the Volkswagen Lamando's water temperature gauge to flash?

It may be a false alarm caused by loose wiring, or it could be due to a lack of water in the engine's radiator. You can stop the car for a preliminary check to see if the engine is short of water or leaking, or if the electric fan has stopped working, among other reasons. If the cause cannot be identified, you can call the repair station's rescue hotline for assistance. Water temperature indicator light: It displays the temperature of the coolant inside the engine. When the ignition is turned on and the vehicle performs a self-check, the light will illuminate for a few seconds and then turn off. Water temperature indicator light stays on: This indicates that the coolant temperature has exceeded the specified value, and you should stop driving immediately. The light will turn off once the water temperature returns to normal. The water temperature gauge visually displays the temperature of the water in the engine's radiator, ensuring the engine operates within an appropriate temperature range. Both excessively high and low water temperatures can affect the engine's performance. Typically, the normal operating water temperature for a car is around 90 degrees Celsius. If you notice the temperature is too high or too low, or if it rises or drops rapidly, these are abnormal conditions.
