Malfunction Indicator Light.
If you don't have the Honda diagnostic code reader (and who does but the dealer) then you can force the code to display by flashing the check engine light (the MIL).
It would then flash something like one long and 2 short for 12. I don't have the manual in front of me right now so I can't tell you how to force it, or the exact sequence of flashes, but that is the jist of it. Then you look on the table and see what fault is being displayed, or "thrown" as some people say.
Usually without a code reader you just jumper some pins on the DTC connector (the red one that in your case, and mine, the GI Pro is plugged into) and the sequence will start. It is in the Service manual and I can send it to you if you want.
