The control module is trying to tell you something is wrong.

If the light is steadily flashing you need to drive it to a dealer pronto. They will read any codes and hopefully be able to tell you what's wrong.

A steady light is just a warning that something needs fixed but not right away. A flashing light needs fixed now.
