You mean the engine management light is on? 90 degrees isn't hot but maybe the sender's up the creek. Is it loosing antifreeze???

Maybe condensation?
Unlikely coincidence that your temp gauge is duff and your engine is overheating at the same time but I've no idea what to suggest. Maybe some diagnostics? Any of you hungover ones out there got any ideas?
