Many things can set off an alarm:
Oil Bottle Level switch, TPS, Water Pressure, Temp...... Just to name a few.

If the alarm went off that usually means that the engine should be put on a computer to read the codes. This is really the only way to know what happened.

Sounds to me like you are in safe mode, check the sending units for your oil bottle, temp, etc.

I just replaced my Stator; much cheaper than I first guessed.
