When the battery is low you will get a lot of different messages on the console. Trans fault, asc not available, cruise control not available. You need to get a charge on the battery and start from there.
If the anti-freeze coolant is frozen then you have more water than anti-freeze. You will need to get that thawed out before you can start trouble shooting.

Dugre, while you were driving it with the warning like on (I am assuming you mean the red light) what did the engine sound like? Did it sound normal or did it start to sound like a lot of metallic rattling? How did it stop running? Did it stop on its own while you were driving or did you pull over and stop the engine yourself?
What kind of coolant level do you have in the car right now? What about the oil level and does the oil look all milky in color?

Got her started Seems antifreeze was mostly H2O. Battery is toast Too cold I suppose. When she starts the check engine light stays on Didnt prior to the overheat.She sounds fine when she is running
Can I reset the computer module to turn off the check engine light?
Any suggestions on changing the thrmostat
Is that a big job for DIY
