It's the crazy light that comes on and could stand for like 300 different problems.
Never fun to see it! Had it pop up recently, luckily was only a $50 vacuum valve that needed to be replaced

CEL = MIL; different manufacturer acronyms for same troublesome light that says a diagnostic code was set by your vehicle.
