SES Light question

The other day I had my SES light come on in my truck. Other than a little bit of a stutter at certain speeds/rpms which it's been doing for quite a while and I attribute to a bad torque converter, it seems to run fine. A friend of mine works at a body shop and I was going to take it to him and have the code scanned and see what it was, but the next day when I fired it up in the morning the SES light didn't come on. So I figured it was just some glitch or momentary bad sensor reading that threw a code and now it's back to normal. However on the way into work this morning I got to thinking... what if the SES light was just burned out? So I turned the truck off and fired it back up to see if it comes on during the instrument test. It flashes ever so briefly, maybe a tenth of a second, if that. Then goes back out again.

So I was wondering, can someone check that next time they fire theirs up to see if theres does the same thing?

Have it scanned anyway. The code is stored for either 40 or 80 drive cycles.
