It stays stays on with no reaction, when jumped? Jump it then start it. Does it come on right away when you start your car un-jumped? Or does it take 5sec?. Check all of theses. Then if none of theses gives it a reaction go disconnect a sensor on the motor (tps,iacv,etc.) It sounds like a o2 code.

You know what's funny? I just chipped and converted my P06 to VTEC for my D15B and it throws a constant CEL. But when I turn the key, it doesn't like up like it should. Only when I start it and rev it to any higher than 1.2K RPM. When I jumper it the CEL lights up solid red with no blips. My burned chip is working correctly because my car redlines at 8K RPM but stumbles at 7K RPM because VTEC isn't kicking it. But either way, it's still doing the same thing as yours. I sent an e-mail to Chris Harris from Xenocron so we'll see what he says and I'll post it here for you. Oh yeah, and my O2 sensor is shot so that's why it's throwing codes.

If the check engine light ISNT on and you put in the jumper...the CEL light on the dash will light up SOLID.

it will only blink if you are actually throwing a code...

Possibly, this is a Check Engine Shift Light feature...and your car is loosing power because really...it doesnt want to rev that high.
