Does your check engine light flash after tephra mod
So I've testing out tephramod v5.10 on my evo 8 with the roms and xml provided. Everything seems to work but I'm not sure my the check engine light flashes everytime I start my engine. It flashes a couple times then stops. I'm just curious what it was doing.
I know that it should light when it detects knock but I don't think that's what its doing when I start the car and it's idling. Please advise.

You guys are correct, auto valet is on but whats weird is that it turns itself on even when I turned it off(by pressing the gas pedel and ign on for a set time).
I'll start my car and its fine. I shut it off and start it 15min later only to find out that valet is on again. I go step on the gas and disable it. I try starting the following 2 times and its fine. For the third time, valet is on again. Is that what it's suppose to do?
To my understanding, auto-valet should only turn valet on if it was on before it was shut off. If valet mode is off when you shut the car off, shouldn't it still be off when you restart the car?

BTW just incase you wanted to know and for some reason didn't see it anywhere, activating or deactivating the valet mode (which you will do if auto valet is on) Tephra designed it to flash to let you know that you have disabled it. I think it is a slow flash for switching valet off and a fast flash for when your turning it on.
But anyways my 2 cents
