What can you do when your car is overheating?

What would cause the Temp light to come on in a 91 Chevy Lumina?
could be several things. 1st is the car actually overheating. If so then it could be a stuck thermostat or a bad water pump. If it is not really overheating my bet would be a falty temp sensor. The temp sensor is what actually tells the light to turn on.

How do you diagnose an overheating problem in a 1998 cadillac deville i was driving on highway with air going the temp shot up to 260 and car shut off.?
well there no need to diagnose overheating, 260 is overheating big time. U have to find out why its overheating. Could be low coolant, a stuck thermostat, a clogged dirty coolant system, bad fan clutch, or if u have electric fan make sure they are coming on. if the fans don't come on, could be a fuse, the fan motor, a temp sensor, or a relay. With the ac on the fans should be running no matter what if it has electric fans. As soon as the ac come on the fans should turn on and stay running. if there not something is wrong.
