your BOV is venting to the Atmosphere, your losing air that the motor thinks it is getting so the light is on... and the car probly has a bouncing idle its and auto so no stumble between gear shifts but either way that is the problem I can almost garentee it

it cant really damage anythin I dont think but It may cause the car to stay out or come close to it at times. You can buy a recirculation kit for the SSQ so it will plumb the air back into the intake much like a stock BOV does but it wont be as loud as it is now though. I personally would rather have no sevice engone soon light on and have my car run good rather than have a loud BOV and bouncing idle
