That would be the Lamba sound light for the O2 sensor. There might be a problem with it. Or some of the cars have it set up to come on at a certain milage to have it inspected.

You can install a digital meter on the Single wire. Watch it with the car running. Make sure it sweeps from O to I think it is 1 Volt or something like that.
