Default did search: cel light hard start

Ok So I went to start my car today and it just cranked and cranked. When I did Fired I had to pedal it till it was warm to stay running, Once running it was fine But there was a cel light. Check code to get

cel 62
cel 21

Now I did look in the sticky but there is no 62 ans what the F is a vtec spool (cel21)

Any Help please...

I will double check the number in a min and re check the cel light

you have a code 6 and a code 22.

code 6 is ECT - water temperature sensor
code 22 is VTEC pressure valve

Thanks!

Im sitting in the car right now and the heat isnt as hot as it should be but that not my concern right now.

My concern is that is it idling at 1160 and wont go down. Is this cause its stuck in cold start due to the ECT?

Im going to check the connector right now but other then that I dont know where to begin lol. Why does this have to happen on hung over day lol

it could be, never had one go out on me so i wouldn't know. the water temp sensors aren't expensive and are easy to change.
