Engine light went off without doing anything and engine runs on normal
temperature.  One this I noticed is that the power steering pump which
also drives the fan seems to be leaking.  I filled up the reservoir to
to indicated level.  Looks like where the reservoir is sealed with the
pump itself is where the leak is.  Maybe the low fluid level caused
the fan not to run.  I will keep en eye on the fluid level and the
engine light and take it from there.  Thanks.
