[hectik_7]

Ok,

The engine light is on?

What's going on, everything is normal, car goes fine and all, except for this light..

Can anyone shed some light please?

make sure that the air sensor that is connect to the intake is connected properly, take it out and give it a clean and reconnect that might work

[hectik_7]

I think that might be it..

Obviosly i need to get under that car.. no worries..

but where is it exactly, is this why its the engine check light is on?

its looks a bit like that and it is the only electrical wire that is goign into your intake all you have to do is unplug it and clean give it a blow or wipe it and reconnect ti

if you have just installed headers, the likely culprit would be the o2 sensor.

[aaronng]

Agreed, check the O2 sensor wiring. You might have kinked it or damaged the sensor.

[hectik_7]

Oh k,

Is there anyway i can remove it or clean it?

Or would it need replacing? I think i should take it back to the exhaust shop...

BUMBING THIS UP,,

i hate this f**kn light

[Frankie]

my mates car has the same, get an ecu that has programed all your modification that will fix it

[AKmotorworks]

you can do a resistance value check, but its probably most cost effective to simply replace it.

Before you go and do that though, do a diagnostic on it to make sure its the 02 sensor. Theres a DIY on how to do that on thsi forum somewhere

[GSi_PSi]

who installed the headers? did they unhook the stock 02 sensor and remove the plug from the factory headers and fit onto the new ones>?

[aaronng]

Like AKmotorworks said, get a paperclip and read the code.

[aaronng]

Diagnostic check first, then post back the code. Nothing else you can do until then.
