    Engine light

    My engine light has been coming on every time i drive at the moment and cant figure out what is causing it.

    I got my car back nearly a month ago from it being tuned just after a AVO turbo being installed, its a civic b16a2 with a hondata S100. Got RC injectors and walbro fuel pump...
    It was running perfectly fine before and this problem has only just started 2 nights ago. The light comes on no matter what, even if my foot isnt touching the accelerator.

    Does any one know what might be causing this?
    Its driving me nuts trying to figure it out and would be a massive help if someone has some ideas...

    Thanks!

    check what code the ECU is giving out, i think there is a DIY on here which tells you how to do it.

    Yea i got my car booked in to get the tuners to hook it up to their computer so they can see whats going on straight away.
    I just thought there might be something more obvious that i was missing...

    you could check all the electrical plugs i the enginbay are connected nice and tight then resent the ecu and see if it still does it, other than that the mechaninc is a good idea

    I had problems with engine lights coming on after my turbo kit install..

    Only after you hit VTec right? light comes on then if you turn your car off and on its gone?

    Mine was VTec return line signal that needed tricking.. but that's only odb1, is yours?

    You can just turn it off with Hondata but not with dam e-mange
