Temperature warning light??

I don't think L300s have warning lights - my 92 L300 definitely does not have one - there's a termp gauge but no light.

Is it the "water in the filter" light perhaps? That just means you need to drain the fuel filter, or change it out altogether.

Kinda shaped like an acorn? That the water in the fuel filter light.

It's not the exclamation mark in a circle though is it? That's the brake warning light - usually just means low on fluid.

Just checked - right to left is:
seatbelt

auto transmission - at least mine is - maybe yours is a 5 speed and you do have an engine temp light instead? - if this is on check your trans fluid level to start, then search this site for more info.

Fuel filter - drain the water from your filter

Brake - check brake fluid levl
