It means that it's become serious and you show have problem repaired. Go to Autozone and they will do a diagnostic for free.

Yes i agree bob you have no idea what you're talking about. Flashing means you are approaching mileage that will need service soon , ie oil change ect.

What if the light flashes after resetting and a clicking noise can be heard from the glove compartment, then the light glows bright again.
