is there a way to remove the light or resetting it?

i took off my AEM short ram intake for the smog test...

put on the stock one just for me to pass...

put back the AEM intake back on.. and the light came on..

i brought it to a friend of mine who solved for a bitt.. but then.. the light came back on just recently.

is there a way to fix it?

 

Umm you might not want to fix the light....usually a CEL is an indication of soemthing you might wanna pay attention to and not ignore.

Check the code 1st off and see waht it is.

Then pull the ecu fuse and wait a minute. Plug it back start the car and idle it for 15 minutes [this is important as the ecu needs to reset its fuel maps].

See if taht does teh trick.

 

Yeah pull the code. might be too rich or lean mixture....

 

what is a CEL? i know how to reset the ECU.. ive tried it.. but that didnt work...

Look at the title of this topic - the one you started - and maybe you can figure it out...

 

AEM is smog legal why take it off unless you don't have the CARB sticker on it?

 

coo thanks man for the link... imma try that out. ^_^

 

i took it off... since the ****** place where i took it.. they told me it wasnt street legal... and i did tell em about the carb number.. but they were like... even then.. it shouldnt be there.. or summ ****.. eh. its already done.

damn i cant like reply to the messages.. damn limit. but anyways... naww.. i installed the intake myself. but since i went to like a ****** jiffy lube.. they were the ones who told me to take it off.

u took ur car to a shop to get ur intake put on? i think u should either learn how to do stuff urself or find urself a new shop..

 

no he took it off because the smog place he took his car is a bunch of dumb asses.

 

You need to check the code.

 

for a Code 43..

i guess i would definately need to reset the ECU. right?

and.... i know i've got one more code.. cuz it blinks more... after the 43 code... but its kinda tricky on how to count it out.
