Check fluid level in the resovior tank. If fluid level is OK, check the level switch. The level switch controls the dash light. If fluid id OK, and you dont want to replace the switch...unplug it.

How do you add antifreeze to a car?
Open the radiator cap when the engine is cool, check the radiator's fluid level, and add appropriately. NEVER OPEN A RADIATOR CAP WHEN THE ENGINE IS HOT OR OVERHEATING. Check your car's owner's manual for specific details.
The radiator symbol is showing but the reservoir is full what is the problem?
It could be one of several issues: 1. The sensor in the radiator overflow bottle is stuck, disconnected or damaged 2. The actual level of fluid in the radiator itself is low, perhaps caused by a blockage or interruption in the overflow tube that connects the radiator and the overflow bottle 3. The thermostat is stuck in the open or closed position, requiring a replacement of the thermostat First things to check: 1. While the vehicle engine is COLD, check that the level of fluid in the reservoir does not exceed the COLD level. 2. Run the vehicle for 20 to 30 minutes of normal driving, then check the reservoir level. The level of fluid in the reservoir should be raised to the HOT level. 3. Let the engine completely cool for several hours. Check the reservoir level again. It should have dropped back down to the COLD level. If the level in the reservoir does not change between the times the engine is cold and hot, you have a problem with your engine's cooling system. Wait several for the engine to completely cool, then open the radiator cap and verify that the radiator is full of fluid. Check the overflow tube that runs from the radiator neck to the reservoir bottle to ensure that it is free of obstructions.

Take the radiator cap off when it is cold and check the fluid level. Just because the recovery tank is full does NOT mean that the radiator is.
On a 1995 Chevy Cavalier what is a warning light that comes on and off which has an arrow pointing down over some water or fluid level?
It is the radiator warning light. Usually it indicates low radiator fluid level. I have had this come on when I have had some minor radiator leaks leading to radiator coolant level going down.

Will the radiator over flow make the transmission go up?
If you mean does the transmission fluid level rise, the usual problem is a leak in the trans cooler built in to the radiator. Depending on engine temperature fluid will transfer back and forth between the radiator fluid and the auto trans fluid changing the level and color of both.
