A CEL came on today as I was returning home from my girls house. I'm like huh? How could this be since I have a CEL fix when I did my TBE w/cat delete.
overall the car runs fine and all but the bright CEL light is annoying me.

I know its not harmful as long as there arent any other trouble codes present, but what else could it be???

So anyway to do a quick fix I just disconnected the "-" terminal of the battery to reset the ECU and voila, no more CEL....

help!!

What is the OBDII code ?

 

I dont know I didnt pull the code yet. I'm assuming it may be the P0300 misfire code, or maybe the gas cap is loose, or maybe my CEL FIX parts fell off...

 

get the code first.

 

I don't see why you should have a misfire code unless you have Cams.

I could be wrong however.

I do know having an OBDII reader makes it much easier to diagnose
problems and clear codes.

I bought an OBDII reader, however from what I understand Autozone
will test it for you for free.

 

nope I dont have cams yet.

my only power adders now are a 3" TBE, no cat, CEL Fix, and a HKS EVC 5 EBC

 

It could be possible that your CEL fix isn't working properly anymore.

But seriously, you need to read the code first.

 

Pull the code first.

 

It can be something else
