Default Just put A/C in 94 civic hatch........ Weird CEL problem

I just installed a A/C kit in my girlfriends 94 cx hatch.
With the car off there are no check engine lights on. When i turn the A/C on, the check engine light comes on.

What could be causing this? Has anyone experienced this??

Thanks

Anyone interested in grabbing this great kit check out: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...66271

everything is plugged back in, double checked everything.

The light only comes on when the a/c is turned on. Does anyone know if the coolant temp sensor is different for vehicles with a/c??

i havent had a chance to scan the code yet as the gf is currently driving the car
