CEL 22 is vtec pressure valve. Check your oil. If that's good check your wiring.

yes both are good, i understand by jumping i think a4 and d6 you can bypass it. can anyone explain the benefit of this, its a p28 and d16z6, will it trick the computer into thinking that at idk 5000 rpm its ok to engage vtec?
