1. Blinking coolant light indicates low coolant level. Top off the coolant tank in rear trunk with distilled water (mid way between min and max with cold engine). Since you just bought the car, keep an eye on your gauge and the coolant level in the tank. You might want to take a peek under the trunk carpet around the tank to make sure you don't have a leak, which is common.

2. Car not cranking etc is a sign of weak battery. Check the date of the battery, take it to an autoparts store and have your battery load tested.

3. Engine light could be lots of stuff...fix the other stuff first!
