Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.

If the light is on when the engine is just started and cold, suspect a bad temperature sensor or a short to power on that circuit. If the light only comes on after driving and the engine is actually overheating, that is a different issue.

Let me know what is actually happening so I can better guide you.

Take care,
Joe
