Thats an easy one.. I have an 89 Lxi also and all you will need to do is pull the cover off the box, check for bad wiring, clean around connections , then reset and see what happens...that should fix it, a friend of mine had a prob like that on an 87 lxi and that did it

the light should not stay on all the time. it should be off when the car is running.
let the car warm up and look under the seat, if the light is still light up, you need new ECU, or something is wrong with wirring.

PS. on the pictures, i don't see the black box and all the vacuum lines. that could be your problem.
