If you are referring to the check engine light, you need to have the computer scanned to identify where the problem is coming from.

Hello,

That is your "brake pad wear" indicator... it means that your front
brake pads are low, or you have a wiring problem with your sensor
wires.


The sensor is located on the driver side "inner" brake pad.

If I was of help, please let me know.
