Default i threw a CEL

i have no idea what it could be, i drive my car on a normal basis, NORMALLY. i havent raced the car in a while. if it helps i have a AEM CAI and a skunk2 manifold and it just hit 10,000 miles.
checked all my hoses on my manifold and found nothing.
how do i find out what code the ecu is throwing?

thanks in advance

Once you get the code post it, and we can tell you what it is.

ok i just checked the codes, im running 3 codes!!!!!!!!

6, 90, and 10

6 - ECT Sensor (Engine Coolant Temperature) defective circuit or unplugged / defective sensor

10- IAT Sensor (Intake Air Temperature) defective circuit or unplugged / defective sensor

90 - Evaporative Emission Control System leak detected in the fuel tank area

could someone give me some advice of how to go about this? while i go out and double check if my readings were correct.... <---how i look right now

edit: i have 4 codes the last one was a 22

22 - VTEC Oil Pressure Switch defective circuit or unplugged / defective oil pressure switch
* invalid code for non-VTEC engine

im assuming all these circuits and sensors came loose when i had my oil changed at the dealer and they did a tune up/check up or watever they do.....i wanna fix this myself so i dont have to drive to the dealer...help

I can only recommend checking for loose wiring. There is no way that many sensors failed. They don't seem to be related. I have never had multiple problems to chase after at one time.

If you don't have a Helms, pick up a haynes manual at a local autoparts store. Figuring this out may take a little time.

How long have you had the Skunk2 manifold in? Could some of those codes be related to that? If not, get that car back to the dealer and have them fix what they screwed up.

i've had the manifold for at least 5000 miles, went through 2 oil changes so prolly around 6k. no loose wiring that i know of. i'll just bring it back to the dealer to see what they do. i hope they dont give me **** for changing out the manifold since its still under warrenty , oh yeah....BTW it SUX a$$ not having VTEC

They can't hassle you for the manifold unless they can prove it caused these problems. That's a bunch of codes, I'd get it back to them ASAP.

The only sensor whose location I know off the top of my head is the IAT sensor. It's located on the top of your intake manifold on one of the runners. It's the one you transfered from the stock GSR manifold to your Skunk2 IM.

I had all of those codes pop on me except for 90. after I put on my skunk2 and bypassed the coolant lines to the throttle body. I reset the ecu and the codes never came back. If I were you I would simply reset the ecu and see if it pops a code again before you take it back to the dealer.
