Jeep Wrangler. Engine Coolant Temperature Warning LightThis warning light indicates an engine overheating condition. If the engine coolant temperature becomes too high, this light will come on and a single chime will sound. If the temperature reaches the upper limit, a continuous chime will sound for four minutes or until the engine cools, whichever occurs first.

If the light comes on while driving, stop the vehicle safely. If the air conditioning (A/C) system is on, turn it off. Also shift the transmission into NEUTRAL (N) and let the engine idle. If the temperature gauge does not return to normal, turn off the engine immediately and contact service.
