Check Engine Light
I hope this is not a problem but I don't know if it is anything to start to worry about yet. I noticed my Check Engine Light pop on twice so far and only for about 2 seconds and then go off. I did not feel or see any change in the car. Is this someting I should worry about. Anyway to check to see why it came on? It appears it came on when the car is cold. ( only within the first few minutes of driving). The first time it came on it was for such a short time I thought that maybe I was seeing things. That was about a week ago. and it happened again this morning.

OK guys. (and gals, not to offend anybody), I found the code. It is 21. The code list says " Coolant Temperature Sensor or Circuit" . Where is it located and how do I fix/replace it? Thanks.
 ps. Pictures are always a plus

Pull off the H6 cover. It is on the back left side of the engine. below the rear edge of the intake manifold. You will see two sensors threaded into a water jacket that sits between the block and the intake. One of the sensors has one wire, that feeds the temp gauge on the dash. The one right next to it has two wires, that feeds the ECU, that's the one that will cause a code. You'll need a deep 19mm socket to pull it.

"2 sensors threaded into a water jacket?" Is it a replacement part?
