Default Engine Warning Light on (SERVICE???)

Yesterday the yellow engine light came on and then went off about 15 minutes later. Thought everything was OK. This morning it came on again. DO I need to take it in for SERVICE???? Anyone else have this problem? Will I hurt my baby if I keep driving it until I can get it in for service?? Any advise is appreciated. :rolleyes: :confused:

B. Stweart,

Just went out to my car and did the code review. Here's what it said:
AO LDCM U1064 H which is Loss communication with BCM
A1 RDCM U1064 "

Any suggestions?

Thanks for the info. Finally figured out why the light came on. Checked my gas cap and it was loose. I filled up with gas and about three trips later the light went off and hasn't come on since. Thanks for the comeback.
