The check engine light came on when the temperature sensor reached its hot limit. The coolant came out because the engine overheated. Possible causes for the overheating are low coolant level ( caused by leak )... radiator fan not working.... thermostat not operating properly....defective water pump/bad belt.....restriction in the cooling system.....head gasket problem
My Kia spectra.. having problem .. hot engin .. when engin hot.. starter cannot start.. must wait until 45 minutes.. than can start the engin... I change the starter... ok... but after a few weeks... the problem come again... the engin hot make the starter spoil again... than I cry until now....
You have overheated the engine maybe thermostat or water pump fault
SOURCE: Warning light in an 07' kia spectra ex, looks sort of like this
in most cases it is a Brake system warning light it is an indication of low brake fluid
SOURCE: 2003 kia spectra check engine code p0604
I have bad news for you
p0604 is a transmission control module
check the connection at the transmission control module if there are no connection issues than you will need to replace the transmission controll module "tcm" there is no other test for that code.
good luck

hi from uk the light/simbol you dscribe illuminated is the tyre pressures monitoring warning this is indicating that one or more of your tyres is under inflated in other words you need to check and inflate all tyres to correct pressure as indicated/recommended in handbook the light should reset after driving if not ceck h/book tyres info

Do the following exactly as stated, i think u have air in the system. The generic method of bleeding air from the cooling system is to use a floor jack and raise the front of the car as high as poss, then fill the coolant recovery tank full and run the engine until it just starts to overheat, high end of normal zone on gauge, then shut the engine down and run cold water over the radiator core, this will self bleed the system and the coolant will be pulled from the recovery tank, repeat as necessary, never let the recovery tank run dry or more air will be pulled into the cooling systeml , if it still overheats then you need to have the head gaskets checked with a gas analyzer for hydrocarbons present in the radiator or recovery tank
