Angry 1991 Legend service engine light

OK here is one for the best of you, I start the car, there are no dash lights showing problems, when I rev the engine the service engine light comes on and stays on, same thing when its driven, although the slower its driven, the longer it takes for the to show, once its on it stays lit until you turn off the key, when you restart the car, the light resets and the process starts all over, I don't get a code, the light is off when restarted, Got any ideas? I don't know if this has anything to do with the problem, I also have noticed the battery light coming on a few times, thought I would tighten the serpentine belt to solve that. Thank-you in advance.

Have you tested your electrical system? If you are not familiar with it, have Autozone test it for free.

THE CAR HAS A FEW ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS, THE REAR D-SIDE DOOR LOCK DOESN'T WORK WITH THE REST OF THE LOCKS, CRUSE CONTROL DOESN'T SET, AND ONLY THE SWITCH ON THE DASH LIGHTS (comes on) WHEN YOU PUSH IT. THE RADIO IS SHOT, PRETTY MUCH THE REST OF THE CAR WORKS WELL FOR A SALVAGE, ITS SUCH A SHAME, THE CAR HAS ONLY 103000 MILES, REAL LOW FOR A 1991, SO WHAT WILL AUTOZONE BE ABLE TO TELL ME, WHAT KIND OF TOOLS WILL THEY USE? THANKS

They will do a load test. Depending on the state of your electrical system, they can tell if your system is being bogged down by placing a load on it. Most places use a device that reads the currents of your system and your major components. While it might not pinpoint all of your issues, it will tell you if the system itself is working properly, which is a huge plus. If that check out well, that means you could have other issues (switches, relays etc.). Just curious, by any chance do you see any signs of this being a flood vehicle?
