This afternoon my 1999 Civic Coupe's Malfunction Indicator Lamp came on and isn't going away. What does this mean and could it be serious? The car still runs though but seems a little rough on idle.

That is no good.... :(

Mine came on after I muck around with the CAI few months ago.. (it was my mistake). But the light disappeared itself after a few days of driving..
