EML guru’s

My 2005 MCS will throw an EML light for no reason I can detect. When it comes on the car does not lose power and when I do a code read it shows nothing wrong. I turn the car off and back on again and it is cleared up until the next time. I have checked all the plugs, wires and coil for loose items and found none. Something is setting off the code. Can anyone ahead some light on what is going on. Thanks

I had an EML problem during WOT that bugged me for awhile. I determined the IC Boots were not tightened enough/Fitted correctly causing my EML to come on. Once I took care of that, no more problems.

Want to add something else to my original question.
What is an EML light and what is the difference between the Service Engine Soon and the EML
