Answer
Hi Sanjay,

Sounds like you have a problem with the temperature sender on the coolant circuit, some times when they fail the engine control unit cannot tell the right temperature and cant decide which circuit to use i.e. open or closed loop.

I'd start by replacing the switch first, and is the problem is still there then use the info I have given on this site to others for not starting/hard starting.
