The engine light is usually associated with the emissions system. You will have to track down which one is bad and replace to get the light to go off.

There is a strong chance that one of the stator rings on the rear driveshaft has broken away. They are located on the end of the rear driveshafts and after time they get corroded and will drop off. The ring is part of the hall effect sensor so when the wheel rotates there is no signal from wich ever side is broken thus throwing up an error.

Easiest way to check is to remove both wheels and look where the driveshaft slides into the hub from the rear and check the condition of the ring wich looks like a ladder. If its not there or sections are missing there is your problem.

There is a kit that you can buy wich changes the end of the shaft rather than the whole driveshaft.

Hello and welcome to Fixya!
You may just need a maintenance check, like an oil change. Try it and observe how it goes. Try to remove the positive battery connector too, let it sit for atleast 5mins. then reconnect it. This can reset the car's computer and get rid of the check engine light.
Hope this helps and thank you for using Fixya! Have a good one!

Won't move out of 4th gear, engine warning light is on. Drove 2000 k's in two days Holden Astra 2006 was due for a service but can't drive there now

Engine light not going off Holden Astra 2001

The check engine light will remain until you have dealt with the issue that is causing the engine malfunction.

The car will need to be scanned for fault codes generated by the computer to assist in diagnosing and locating the cause of the problem.
