Only way to tell is to pull the codes.You can purchase a code tool at almost any large auto parts distributorSome will pull the codes for free hoping to sell you parts to fix itYou can pay a shop to pull the codes.Outside of pulling codes, no way of telling, could be almost anything from a loose gas cap to a bad oxygen sensor to a transmission issue.Go get the codes pulled and go from there.If it was you gas cap, the light should go off shortly after a restart or two.Dave

^x2 - I'd get the code read. You can get a code reader on ebay for about $25, then you'll always have it for all your vehicles.
