I have a 2005 echo and I am seeing check engine lights intermittently, the coolent fan is comming on for about 2 seconds then the check light comes on. The coolent fan should not be comming on in the middle of winter right after I start it up in the morning. Also the cold light in the morning will go out after about 10 min of driving then come back on after the car is at operating temp.

Fan problem is most likely a bad fan switch or sticking relay.

The cool engine light could also be a sensor or a thermostat.

Start by getting codes read at most autoparts stores for free.
