the check engine light fires after vtec is engaged the first time...vtec then continues to engage but the light stays on

also, after the alerting light for codes lights up, i get two long lights and then a quite short one so does this count as a code 2 or a code 3?

2 long & 1 short sounds like code 21. VTEC solenoid valve.
