92 civic with B18c

I just learned how to datalog with eCtune and it shows that the MIL is 'ON' for a code 20 (electronic load detector). My CEL comes on in my gauge cluster when my fuel pump primes and then goes off. If I unplug for example the ECT sensor, the CEL will illuminate in the cluster.

Why doesn't my CEL come on for code 20?

 

You sure you're reading it correctly? I have never heard of a CEL only working for SOME conditions and not others. New to me if it does.

 

how could I be misreading it? the light on the dash isn't on and the eCtune datalog says "MIL: ON" right click it, and it says ERROR CODE 20 ELD-electronic load detector.

 

If i clear the code, about 4 seconds later it comes back on, so theres def a problem.

 

Maybe not mis-reading IT but possibly IT is not reading correctly.

According to the posts at that link you simply disable ELD in Ectune.

 

great link, that has exactly what I needed.
