Just wondering if an abs light acts as a cel when vtec will not kick in?
Thanks in advance

Yoinked

check engine light=no vtec, abs light=no abs (in case you dont know, anti-lock brake system)

Sorry if i wasnt clear, I know the abs will not work with the abs light on but should vtec still kick in?

Yoinked

it should but i dont have abs so i dont know for sure

t_lager

anyone know for sure??

AllMotorDan

why would an abs light mean no vtec....this is a dumb question. If you had problems with your vtec you would get a cel and it'd probably be code 21 or 22

Read that and it'll tell you why your abs light is on

This isn't a dumb question, I see the reasoning he has behind asking it.

Not necessarily.

As far as I know, ABS light should not affect VTEC.

unless the cel actually turns on, then vtec and your entire engine would be hindered, but ABS has nothing to do with his vtec, your brakes will just lock up

I dont have that many post here and this is a good reason why, there is always an ******* that needs to make his useless post (SpoonSirG). I know how to check the codes, Vtec is not kickin in and Im not sure why, the ABS light is on and wasnt sure if that was the cause or not. I just got the car and am trying to get one thing figured out at a time. thanks to everyone else

If light is on , u have no ABS... My ABS don't work either. ABS modeulator vibrates for about 15 secs, then light comes on in my dash.

Yup, the abs computer is completly seperate from the main ECU.

yea mine does that too. why does it do that? i just got tired of it and unhooked it from the battery.

i heard from a mechanic that the abs unit needs to bled seperately. can anybody confirm?

t_lager

yes, the abs unit does have to be bled seperately, there is a bleeder valve right on top of the unit, be careful where you let the brake fluid shoot out cuz its not too good for paint.

lockheedload

not true at all..i had a cel for idle air temp and my vtec still engaged.
