Anyone wanna help me? (check engine light on)

The check engine light came on and I'm wondering why. It flashes 9 times, stops and will flash 9 times again and again.....
Its a 99 Civic EX

TIA,
Will C.

Re: Anyone wanna help me? (DragIIcivic)

I had the same problem tonight on my 99 Si, but mine just stayed on (solid, no blinking). What does that mean? Engine mods that I have are i/h/e and a Clutchmaster Stage 3. I've had the i/h/e on for awhile now and just put on the new clutch 320 miles ago. Any ideas?

Did that, it hasn't come back on yet. Thanks!

It came on last night when I accidently "forgot" that the car was in gear and I had the parking brake set and let off the clutch. Mind you, this is a new clutch so when it grabbed, it GRABBED!! Could this of caused the light to come on?
