Maybe it is the Lamba sond light?
If so that should be the check engine light and you should have the codes red.

That light might be bacsically the check engine light meaning there is trouble codes stored in the engine computer.

how do you find out if the Lambda control is too lean or rich according to trouble codes? Is there a control module or something that controls this>
