10 Automatic transmission warning
<Automatic transmission vehicles>
The automatic transmission warning illuminates as
a bulb check when the ignition key is turned to
“ON.” It should go out in a few seconds.
If the light illuminates while driving, there is a fault in
the electronic control system of the automatic trans-
mission. Stop the vehicle in a safe place, shut down
the engine, and keep the ignition switch in “ACC” or
“LOCK” for 5 seconds or longer, if necessary to
reset the computer. Then restart the engine.
If the fault does not clear, or the light soon comes
back on, have the vehicle checked by an authorized
Sterling service facility.
Even with a fault in the electronic control system,
the vehicle can still be driven in a “derate” mode.
In the “derate” mode, not all gears will be available.
See the table below for more information.
11 Coolant temperature warning
The coolant temperature warning illuminates if the
engine overheats. With the engine overheated, the
needle in the coolant temperature gauge is in the
red zone.
Stop the vehicle promptly. Use the engine idle con-
trol to run the engine at a speed slightly higher than
normal idle. This allows the engine to cool. When
the gauge needle comes down to near the center of
the scale, shut down the engine and perform the
checks and corrective actions described under “If
the engine overheats” on this reference page:
P. 12-7
CAUTION
Do not shut down the engine right away. Let it
run at a speed slightly above normal idle. If the
engine is shut down immediately after stopping,
the coolant temperature will rise quickly and
may cause the engine to seize.
