Check the coolant expansion tank (reservoir), a white plastic tank on the left engine compartment, most likely behind the wiper fluid container, above the passenger tire wheel well. Check coolant levels. If there is proper coolant levels, then there isn't any leaks. The indicator light blinks and the car over heats then it is most likely your water pump. Lucky for you, Saturn builds good cars with easy accessibility. Get a Haynes repair manual. It'll tell you how to test your water pump and remove and install it. I used it to replace the water pump on my 1994 SL1 for the same problem you are having. Good luck.

Your radiator light keeps blinking on your Oldsmobile Intrigue?

If you are talking about the low coolant light then it is just low of coolant. Add coolant to the recovery tank. If you are talking about the coolant temperature light, then the engine is overheating. You may need to have the cooling system serviced. Drain the coolant and flush the system. Install a new thermostat, and add a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and distilled water.
