Never a stupid question. Don't be shy.
To clarify: you're saying that the light just comes on for a second and then shuts off?

Ok. I did some research, and the S4 light is supposed to come on for 2 seconds when the ignition is turned on. Thus, I think you're getting the desired behaviour.
You said this was new, so maybe there was previously a problem that has since gone away. I found these PDFs to be helpful:
