Noticed in all the auctions the engine is at operating temp when video check.....

I noticed on all the function checks of HMMWV's the engine is already at operating temp yet they are waiting about 7 seconds before starting the vehicle like they are observing the wait light, which wouldn't come on with the engine at operating temp. Any explanation for this?

Interesting question.

I was thinking my wait light comes on for the usual time even if it was just driven. I'll have to pay attention next time.

If you have a green label EESS, it will come on hot or not.
