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.

What would cause the Temp light to come on in a 92 Chevy Lumina?

The temperature light comes on in a 1992 Chevy Lumina when the temperature of the engine reaches the boiling point. The light may also come on if the transmission gets too hot. Usually a leak in the radiator system will cause a loss of fluid and lead to the temperature light, but it could be anything and must be checked.
