Default the light...what is it

as some of you know i have a 1G eclipse...there is a light in the dash that has been on ever since i got it...it is running perfect except for the exhaust which just makes alot of noise... but the light looks like an air filter or oil filter but i have just replaced both of them..it is an orange light just to the right of the check engine light...could it be the o2 sensor gone bad light??? also, is it a bad thing to drive with this light lit up?? could it do damage to my car? just curiouse..thanks for any help

Does it also look like a carousel? A radiator perhaps? The Lincoln Memorial?

Low coolant light
i seen somewhere a guy said " that lights means your car wants to go on a merry-go-round ride"
check your coolant level in the overflow tank, if its full the sensor took a crap, i unplugged mine to get the light to shut off
