Tony,
I don't know if this'll help you out or not, but I ran 41 through the
trouble codes program on the DML home page, and it came back with
"An open or shorted condition detected in the generator field control circuit"
and said that the generator lamp would be illuminated. Maybe there is
no generator lamp, so they lit the MIL instead? (shot in the dark) :-)
Good luck with whatever it is!
