Hi:

I used to have the same problem 1 month ago, the light came and went suddenly without any pattern, i.e some times it comes n times a day and some times nothing, I decided to take my car to service, then they told me they had to scan the car, finally they told me that a sensor's line was damaged, after 2 days they solved the problem and charged to me around $130.

 

I hope this can help you.
