He lives in Canada. Export cars got the engine symbol instead of Service Engine Soon. He would also have a symbol that says "ABS" instead of "ABS inop".

I think it's pretty cool that you have an actual Canadian Camaro. Good luck with the diagnosis, hopefully it isn't a severe problem!

If its a problem with your KM acting up trying putting in a LT4 KM its less senstive and won't retard you timing to every pop your car makes, its about $30

i did swap in a LT4 KM and still have the light so I got another scan at a different garage and it said "Knock circuit" so I guess I will check the messurements as Shoebox suggested.

anything else to check??
