Default Check engine light 1999

Is it possible for the check engine light to be on for non - engine related issue?

I extracted the codes only to find that the only current ones were from pressure monitoring system.

Would this in itself make the check engine light go on??

Yep, many of the 8-10 systems that the DIC has access to can trigger a light. Does the light go off when you clear the code via the DIC?
