Starting in '96 SAAB along with everyone else went to the OBD-2 code specification to activate the Check Engine light. If you had the light come on with no noticable performance change it could be just about anything, but you need to pull the codes with a OBD-2 reader (I got one at Canadian Tire for about $250 CDN). Once you pull the codes you can track it down specifically, but I have had the light come on for a loose gas cap, a random misfire, a slow response from an O2 sensor, pretty minimal stuff. I clear the codes with my reader and they usually don't come back unless the component is, indeed, starting to fail (as in the case of my O2 sensor).
