Check for codes first. You might have an issue that keeps the light from illuminating.

I did get a code i can't remember what my mechanic said but he said it could be new wires and plugs or a fuse or or the light itself. Or itcould be the computer system itself. I really hope not. But thank you for your reply. I appreciate it!

Plugs and wires wouldn't keep the light from coming on. A fuse, the "E" light bulb or computer issues themselves are easy to check once the code reader is attached, maybe you should try a different mechanic or different GM garage.

on my 2002 Escalade ext the problem was the wiring harness that plugs into the instrument cluster was pulling down (wire is a little short and shrinks just enough in cold weather) , this caused the circuit board to crack and dash lights and gauges to go off and on intermittently. I had the circuit board repaired and eliminated the problem , then restructured the angle on the wiring harness to avoid a repeat.
