Default Engine Checklight came on

Nice forum. I never knew this existed until I had my first problem with my 2002 F-150 just yesterday.

The check engine light came on and the only thing that I can tell by the gauges is the water temp is running low. The needle used to sit around half way, but now it is at the 1/4 mark right about the temp symbol.

The heater is working fine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
