check engine light from cold weather

hello all, its been in the -15*C this week and my check engine light comes on every now and then, it did this twice in the last cold snap we had, but when it warmed up it did not come on, anyone have any ideas whats causing this??

i don't think it is anything but the cold weather, but would like to know.


Thanks for any help or info
Kris

Pull the codes, that's the only way to know what the problem is. Go to www.fordfuelinjection.com to see how. It could be a trivial problem that won't really affect anything.. but it could also be a sensor that is out of range that may result in excessive fuel consumption or poor drivability.
