Default Engine light

I know that this question has probably been answer before but I am at work and can only use the internet during break and lunch so I don't have time to search. If anyone can answer this question, it will be very helpful. I was driving to work this morning and all of a sudden, the "engine check light" came on. I turn off the engine and restart and the light was still there. The GS only has 35k mile. It was recently service at 32k miles. Is this something that I can fix or do I need to take it to the dealer and pay and arm and leg. Thanks all....

Most of the auto parts chains (Autozone, Advance Auto Parts, Pep Boys) will pull the codes for free. Or you could buy your own OBDII diagnostic computer ... which would porbably be cheaper than taking to the dealer.

Yes, go to AutoZone and pull the code out. After you have the code, we can help you to decide what to do next

Thanks guys....went to Auto Zone and pull the code. It said "Heater Sensor Malfunction". Does anyone know what this is....it is possible to repair it myself or do I have to take it to the dealer. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
