Computer glitch?

Driving home from work yesterday my radio display and my instrument display flickered and then my temp gauge read the temperature in celsius for about 3 seconds, then went back to Â°F.. any ideas? I am not too worried about it...

Other then that, a headlight warning comes up once in a while, beeps then goes away..maybe once a week.

1st one seems to be a computer glitch, but the headlight warning you should check out.

I bet one of your bulbs is on the verge of burning out.

Look at them anyway. I've had halogens burn out anywhere between 1 week and 6 years.

If it's this warning (yellow)

then this might be a solution:
