it wasnt anything serious then. it happens from time to time for a code to appear and correct itself.

that was your ECU saying "**** it, your not going to pay attention to me then I'm goin to hell in about a week" - but seriously - you should find out what the code was - its still stored in the ECU. And also to clear it so the next time you have a CEL you know which coed is causing your CEL this time

It can go off and on, but on a rare occurance you may be losing power and the ECU is being reset. For haha's check the battery and the connection go in and see what the code was and clear it then if it comes back, you know what happened
