just about anything related to the ecm, any sensors or controls. it wouldn't be a tune up part ,like plugs, unless it was causeing another problem and setting a code.

Pull the codes and post them, or look them up in the tech section of this site. Without that info it's blind stabs in the dark. Any one or more of about 50 or 60 different things can make the ECM turn that light on.
