WEIRD CEL light problem - turns on, then off for 3 seconds, then on again.. ???
first, CEL is going on for VTEC solenoid. A4 and D6 are already spliced for the bypass vtec oil pressure switch. so u run the solenoid switch and connect that to A4. CEL disappears. you run the car, pulls on VTEC. 10 minutes after test driving, CEL pops up again. VTEC doesnt kick in anymore.
here is the WEIRD part - when you turn the key into ignition, CEL stays on, then goes OFF for about 3 seconds. then CEL turns on again.
is this something weird? shouldnt the CEL stay on the whole time rather than turn on, off for 3 seconds, then on again? btw, could you guys take pix of how you spliced the A4's and the D6's to bypass the pressure switch.. most likely, im not doing a good job like you guys are.. thanks

try cleaning the vtec solenoid and check wiring to make sure if there are any cut wires that they were soldered back together correctly.

Is it on just for a sec or does it hold? If it just blinks and then waits it sounds like Error Code 1 which is your O2 sensor.
