I have a 98 saturn sl2 1.9 dohc. My service light keeps coming on and going off... While one time I start the car it is on then I shut it off and start it up again it will not come on..This is not the service engine soon light... Is this setup only for saturn b/c I have not seen it before and can I hook up a scanner and see why this light comes on.. thanks mike


Did they have the oil change warning lights in 98? If so, at the last oil change it might not have been reset.

The service engine light can mean that the computer is generating a fault code.

Service light, but not the service engine soon light?

You might want to get the car to a mechanic, imho.

Get the code read free at Autozone. You do not indicate mileage or maintenance history. EGR valve replacement (simple fix) is a common issue with this vehicle at 80-120K miles.
