First make sure the Cap on the coolant tank is screwed down snug and not loose, lose of pressure from a loose cap in the coolant system can trigger your light to stay on.
If this is not the case then Drive your car as LITTLE as possible until you can get it into a repair shop! Just because your coolant tank is full doesn't mean that a problem isn't still lingering. I had a 95 Corsica with the same problem and came to find out the light was staying on because of a pressure imbalance in the system but this wasn't from a coolant cap but because the head gasket had cracked causing the antifreeze to slowly leak into the oil. A way to check if your antifreeze is leaking into your oil would be to take off the oil fill cap and look down inside, if the oil has seemed to have gotten foamy and tan colored then you got a problem. If not you may have pipes outside that are leaking causing a pressure imbalance.

Why would your 1996 Dodge Avenger 2.5 v6 overheat assume the radiator cap and thermostat are all good heater blows but is cold this is a problem which showed up quickly?
sounds like blockage in the cooling system. See if you are not low on coolant in the radiator. Just because your reserve tank has coo;ant does not mean that you have enough coolant in the radiator. If you have low coolant in the radiator, it will blow cold. It can happen abruptly. If you are low on coolant in the radiator and not in your reserve tank you will need to find out why the system is not pulling coolant out of the reserve tank.
