Its hard to list them all but some examples are: parking brake on, overdrive off, stability control off (2006 only), airbag service, tire pressure problem, etc etc. You can see what many of them mean when you turn the key to "accessory", many of the lights light up for a few seconds before starting. either read your owners manual or if your question is why do it turn on then what happens is a sensor acts like a limit switch when something is not what it is supposed to be then the sensor sends a signal to the computer and the puter does many things but the 2 you need to know about is 1. the light brings attention to you that something is different or wrong. 2. a code is put into the OBCII computer for diagnosis by you or a tech.
