Anything to do with emissions, power train control, overall engine performance... The "Check Engine" light indicates it all. Get the code read out at Auto Zone and search the code here to find out what to do. The guy at Auto Zone will probably tell you what it means, and most often for free.
I was told that the code was a vapor lock and the problem could be fixed using STP cleaner for the fuel injection Well the light did go off for about 4 days then it returned. MY question regarding this is if a Satellite theft system was added to my Vehicle would that cause the engine light to come on because the light never came on before the GPS theft system was installed by the dealer when I purchased the truck this is done on all the Vehicles that they sell to a higher risk profile clients So I pay my Payment the Day I get paid usually in cash so there is no dispute. They give me a code to enter in the system. What I want to know is the system causing the Engine light to remain on?
I use a scan tool after repairing the cause of the code.
no for sure not

The light comes on when the computer detects a malfunction that affects emissions or the transmission. You will need to have the codes checked with a scan tool to know possible causes.
Have the codes read, and fix the cause. May be the rear axle speed sensor.
Yes it could.
