A/C and REC light flashing?
I just picked up my second 854R yesterday and noticed that whenever I start it that the A/C and REc lights flash for about 10-15 seconds. Is this something to be concerned about?

You've got a fault code in your ECC; could be anything from a seized intake fan (that's what mine is right now) to a stuck blower door to a faulty temp sensor. You can read the codes with a diy reader or have the dealer do it. Lots of info on here if you search the forum...

It can be really minor, like it is detecting a mismatch in the door and motor command - so it can be deferred, like wing crack inspection on an airplane wing.
