no, check the coolant reservoir 1st, if its full then after car is at operating temp. look underneath and see if any coolant or water is on the ground below the water pump if so the weep hole is probably leaking on the water pump check the componet if all check out it maybe the thermostat fairly enxpensive to replace so i would replace the thermostat and check the temp again but if the water pump is leaking it needs to be replaced

How do you stop the overdrive light from flashing on a 1997 Ford Contour?

The light is flashing because your trans is displaying that there is a fault with the trans itself. Need to have a qualified tech read the code from the trans I had the same problem. The tranny shop replaced the shift position sensor and the problem was solved. As stated above, you need a transmission shop to diagnose it with there diagnostics computer.
