Default Threw a code.....Please help!

Allright, I just got back from my car store after having a throttle rotor installed. Seemed to be ok. So I floor it in second. Car runs fine, check engine light comes on. WTF? The Maintenace required light has been flickering when I start it up for the past two days, after I had my ignition done. I didnt think anynthing of it because I thought it would stay light if it was for real. So what do you think is up? Check sig for setup, and the Acura dealer won't be open until Mon. Thanks,
gmoore

jump the ECU, check the code. My guess says throttle position sensor is out of adjustment.

bump ...never done this before. Hostboard guys say open up the ecu box, look for green wire with two hole connector thingy, then short that connection. Then turn the car on , but dont start it, watch for how many long and short blinks of the check engine light. Will this harm the ecu?

wont harm the ecu...on the passenger side under the dash there will be a green rubber thing with a blue plug in it...pull out the blue plug and use a paper clip to connect the two holes...turn the egnition to "on" and count the flashes...i doubt i explained this right so you can check http://www.c-speedracing.com/faq/06.html it has pics and better instructions

that maintenance light just means youneed to like change the oil i think but, i do know that you can reset that by holding the button under your dash. under the steering column. there is a box just off to the right. hold that button untill the maintenance light disapears.
