When the MIL comes in, it means an error has been detected by the engine management system. If you can't find any trouble codes, either the scan tool is not compatible, the code has not stored or it is erased when engine is turned off.

I would start with checking the basics, spark plugs condition, loose wire connections at the engine computer, contaminations.

Was anything done prior to this occurring?
