Your 2002 Saturn is likely a 2.2 Ecotec not a 2.4. The lower radiator hose on most cars usually leads to the water pump and the upper hose connects the thermostat housing to the radiator return inlet.

either your pump has gone or you are low on fluid

It depends on the actual code. The most common reasons are a faulty idle air control valve, a vac leak, or a dirty throttle body.

The security light is a visual indication that something in the car's antitheft system is failing. In most GM cars and trucks there is a hidden system that most people are unaware even exists. From the moment you put your key in the ignition, there begins a constant line of communication between your key's security chip or transponder, to the ignition's lock cylinder, and then to the car's TDM (Theft Deterrent Module). These 3 parts are in CONSTANT communication. If the key is in the ignition, then these parts are sending signals to each other. The security light illuminates when that signal gets broken, even just for a second. When the signal breaks, the car misinterperates this as an attempt at theft and goes into antitheft mode. The car thinks its being stolen or hotwired because it is not getting that signal from YOUR specific key. This is why the security light turns on and shuts down your vehicle.

have you check the starter? sounds like that is the issue. if the click from the fuse box is the starter relay then you are most likely getting signal to the starter. try to bang on it with a metal pole while some one turns the key radipidly. let me know what happens.
