Check Engine light ON/OFF when EManage installed

Good day friends... I bought an Emanage blue and installed it on my 4G63t evo1 engine... once installed, i start the engine.... the Check Engine Light (CEL) turns ON and OFF like there is a loose connection...the CEL is not continously turning ON and OFF, sometimes, it takes a few minutes before it blinks again... but i've already checked the wiring connections many times with the help of some technicians who knows how to install Emanage, we can say that my wiring connection is correct and soldered... i have also checked the toggle/rotary/dip switch from the Emanage and it's set at 3-8-3... and also all the jumper wires are in their correct places...

if i remove the Emanage and start engine, the CEL doesnt blink at all..
what do you think is the cause of the CEL blinking when Emanage installed?

thanks and hope to find the solution as soon as possible...

I have installed and tuned several emanage setups but have never seen this happen before.

Any error codes blinking on the emanage?

Do you get the proper input and output siganl using the support tool?

the early evos are notorious for this at idle.im 99% sure its idle related.i raised my idle slightly which solved the issue.
