Strange electrical?
Had the Vette out yesterday and was cruising at 65 MPH when I noticed a message on the DIC. Engine temperature hot AC off. Pulled off hiway and had a look, not hot. Started car and noticed no reading on temp guage, also noticed headlights were on. Sunny day why the lights? Drove car home disconnected negative battery cable for 5 minutes, started car all normal after that. Anyone else have this happen?

Don't laugh, buy make sure the battery is fully charged. If it isn't the car will do funny things.
Also, don't forget to re index the windows since you unhooked the battery.

Had an electrical quirk on our 05 the first year..... Noticed one day the headlights were on in bright sun light... Turned them off manually and DIC said "headlights suggested" I disconnected the battery for a short time and never had the problem again.
Any electrical issue deserves a reboot (battery disconnect) before getting too excited
