Oh, yeah, it's not like there's hundreds of different reasons the SES light can come on. No, people who have never even seen this car and have no idea of any drivability issues, things the car is doing, or what you have done in the past will just know what the engine light is on for.

Get is scanned at Autozone and look up the code.
