just got the right ecu from HMO, and ive hooked it up but it turns on the engine light when i hit vtec...but it doesnt throw codes when the car is on..any ideas on what the problem could be? thanks.

 

If the check engine light is coming on then it should store the code in memory. I would jump the test harness and see what code is coming up.

 

hmmm.

Have you tryed uhhh...

CHECKING THE CODE???

 

have u tried uhhh....READING THE POST???? ya chode

 

Should I highlight that for you?

 

The ecu stores the code once the cel comes on.The cel doesn't have to be on in order to pull a code.So pull the code and find the answer......easy as 1-2-3

 

please check the codes first on the ecu and get back to us with something more tangiable.




thanks to katman again

well since i dont know much about cars, i guess i wouldnt know the code is stored, which is probably why i was asking a question, instead of deciphering it for myself that it stores a code. so if u were just gonna be a **** about it, whyd u even post? thanks to everyone else who helped though, i appreciate it, and thanks to the guy who posted the pictures up.
