Service Engine Soon Light

My light just turned on about 2 days ago, i did a diagnostic scan and nothing came up. it shoed a history code of "EAS electrical failure" in the past but i dont recall that happening since i have owned the car and i've ran a scan almost a month ago and cleared out all my codes then. does anyone know how this may pop up now but not then???

my main question is trying to figure out why my light pops on when i start driving my car and then turns off when i hit a stop light or pull over to park. all my gauges read fine. i don't notice a difference in driving conditions either. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

if it matters...i have a 95 LT1 Trans am. auto.

Not sure of that code, do you know the number of the code?

Generaly a code that comes and goes while driving is an EGR or 02 code. Get it scaned and give us a code number to be sure.

Re: Service Engine Soon Light

thats part of the problem that i thought i had posted before. whenever i go to scan the computer it doesnt come up with any errors. don't know how to get over this. as soon as i stop the car to scan it, the light turns off. any ideas?

What are you scaning it with? It should still be in history if you scan it within a reasonable time.
