Default CRX: Yellow dash warning light comes on!!

Crx '90.
The yellow warning light (the one thats on the top left, not sure what it symbolizes) came on when i drove home today. I thought it was the cooling, but the temperate gauge reads normal.
What exactly does this warn about?
I wish i had a troubleshooting manual....only have the workshop manual!
Thx,
Dave

it might be the check engine light. You can get the codes by pulling up the carpet and looking at the top of the ECU (under passenger footwell) it has an LED that flashes the codes if anything is wrong. Does your dash not have anything over the light to signify what it is for?

I tried to take a pic of it, but the symbol doesn't show up in the photo

The symbol looks weird, sort of round shape with bars sticking out.
My crx works great, i'm not sure why this comes on!
Haven't checked the ecu yet....
Could anyone give me a ballpark of what going on?
Water temp stays same...oil level is fine.
Thx

i am pretty sure that is ur check engine light, the only other ones are trunk, battery, seat belt and oil.

i know for a fact that the check engine is yellow (had it on many times). check ur ecu and see wat code/codes u r throwin
