2. Yesterday, I have received the temperature warning light in my car
that was due to low coolant level. So I filled the coolant but when I
checked in morning then the coolant was not there, it was completely
empty. So the problem is coolant leakage. I am sure it going to be
expensive bill at tomorrow's garage visit. So thought let me update the
blog post what should you do when you get engine temperature
warning light.

3. When the engine temperature light appear on your dashboard that
means your engine is overheating. Your engine cooling system is not
properly filled or working properly.
Driving with engine temperature light 'ON' can increase the risk of
serious engine damage.

3)Check the coolant level
 Check your coolant level again after some hours, if it's not there than it
must be coolant leakage. Common leak points include radiator and heater
hoses, hose connections, the water pump and radiator. Internal leaks (such as
a crack in the head or engine) can't be seen and can only be diagnosed by
pressure testing the cooling system.

4)Do not drive with leakage
If you keep driving with overheating light then it can cause serious damage.
The engine may start to knock and turn the cause piston, ring and head
gasket damage.
The primary job of the cooling system is to keep the engine from
overheating by transferring this heat to the air, but the cooling system also
has several other important jobs.

5)Visit Garage or Call for help
If helps is easily available then would advise to call for help. If you cannot
manage then drive on very short distant to get your car to garage. Keep your
air conditioning off and open the car window that helps in some ways.
If you keep drive for long distance then it is unsafe for you and your car.
