Sounds like the engine management light, it can be a lot of things why it's come on but don't panic, you need a car code reader to plug into the car to tell you the code of what the problem is , sometimes the fuel cap not being closed properly is very common but you need a car code reader .

NO fixya only gives advice you will have to follow it up your self or get a lawyer to talk on your behalf

Hey Teresa, This may be something as simple as a loose gas cap. Just wait until the shop tells you what wrong.. The engine does a self-diagnostic vacuum check on the fuel system to ensure fumes are not escaping into the atmosphere.. when the gas cap is loose, the system sees a leak and turns on the check engine light. If they replaced any parts, tell them you want your old one(s).. DEMAND it/them back.. they might have tightened your gas cap and reset the light and then try to charge you for a sensor or something.

Sorry we have none of this here.

Check the fuse marked courtesy lights or interior lights.

Check first for gas on the gauge then a check engine light functioning to show computer not dead then check for engine codes if possible (code readers are cheap and if your car is sold in usa it is possible).
Check for flashing security light.
Then check for spark.
Then check for fuel pump him and or pressure at the under good port.
Then check for clicking fuel injectors.
Use the information you have gathered to Google.

double posted? replace the speed sensor. the SM covers all this, ever seen a service manual. ? is this a USA car,? you posted to USA forum. so... DTC errors are based on engine and trans in your car, called the Drive line we cant guess that ever. why work on car not knowing whats there>? how can you buy parts or read correct chapter in the service manual lacking this 1 key fact.? the speed is dead most times with VSS dead. replace VSS , clean it or fix its busted up wires. swift or swift + we only have 2007 in canada no USA< so why not say country first why must we beg? 2004 to 2011 in canada, sorry cant do outside N.America, sorry. ill look up the canada codes, is speedo in KPH?>?>>?>>> swift non + ended 2001 here. oops my source of books has no canada swift books. answer: the VSS can only be in 2 spots. under hood, (there is one other exception) 1: on the axle near (pinion ring gear), to measure speed. 2: on some cars the ABS wheel sensors. In case 2 , the ABS knows speed and simply tells the PCM speeds at all times and in turn PCM sends speed data to the CLuster. are all fuses good.?

turn it off then key off. is my guess. newer cars have radio on network, and cars BCM remembers radios last state. why not read the operators guide in the glove box all that is explained, if radio still stock,

never buy a suzuki ever see? they are bugged out in USA and Canada , (collapsed here) see they cant fix there own BS IMMO.!!! sad. never buy cars with rust rule 2 or hacked up wiring, you get to strip out harness from old wreck to fix your nasty car why buy this car? sure cheap.. but is it? why post here,? you know what you bought,a pig fix it. put it back to stock repair all that damage!! its no brainer so far,,,,,

Milky is a sign of water/cooling fluid mixed with the oil. Somewhere in the motor/transaxle you have a leak.

so., whats the question? you posted NONE>. how to fix cars, or that? if you had to ask this you cant fix cars,(a pure simple chimerical failures) hint replace the broken parts, or missing bolts. why not get it fixed, we cant do that here in net bunny land. not ever. and lacking photos, x10 times impossible. lots of photos.!!!
