Cold weather? If the low temp light is on you need to take it easy until the engine is fully warmed up. If it comes on when it should not the thermostat may need replacing.

The indictsore on dash related with engine coolant temperature sensor ..and you can find it on coolant line close to thermostat may be loose connection ...if no look for other gage on dash if they change or flicker you should have bad wire ground on post of battery. ...
