Engine Cooling problem
2000 Saturn SL2 Automatic

The other day my saturn over heated so I let it sit now when I start it the battery light comes on and then what I think is either the warning light or low fluid light (havent figured it out cause the car didnt come with a manual) comes on. Also the streeing wheel got very tight it has since not been so tight but I dont know what is wrong can anyone help me?

Do you have a multimeter?Check your coolant level it should be up to the seam of the coolant bottle. How high did the temp gauge read when it over heated?Was the cooling fan on when it over heated?

Yes I do have a multimeter. The temp gage went all the way up in to the red zone and yes the cooling fan was on. Any ideas?

Since the battery light is on then start the car and let it idle Then check to see what the voltage is at the battery cable's. Also have you checked the coolant level you could have a leak and be low on coolant causing the overheating.
