Its not so much a light as a read out. It comes on were the odometer and clock would be (I have a 2007) it reads "CHECK FUEL CAP LOSS" I have never seen it come on until now.

Its very stange I have never seen a message on there before, I had no clue it did that but it won't turn off it covers up the display so I can't see the time or anything.

The same thing happened to my friend's 2006 Acura, ODB scanner has no code and could not reset it either, finally unplug the battery for 20 seconds and the message never came back on.
