intercooler warning light

Hi, very new here and already asking question. The intercooler light on the dash came on so I did a visual inspection and found nothing wrong. The truck appears to run fine, good idle and power. I'm just wondering what made the light come on and if it will be harmful to keep driving.
Thanks for any help.

what are your truck specs? There is no warning light for intercoolers.

is this light on the lower right hand guage on the cluster? If so then that is your coolant temp guage. If it is on then does the guage needle point to H=hot?
