Hey ppl,


The 'Engine light' comes ON every time when I start her up when Cold.
After the third bar (temp) comes on, I'll shut and restart, and the light doesnt come in...ie No light when warm up.

Basically, the light comes on when the car is cold. No matter how many times I stop and start her (when cold).

I have not been driving my car for about a month (was overseas). I've tried resetting (ie disconnecting the Battery)...but still on the same tank of fuel...



Any thoughts ?



Thanks
Thomas

 

When you get repeated CELs that do not go away, you should find out what the codes are.
I have a suspicion that because it only happens during cold starts, it will be related to the secondary air injection system or the cold high idle mechanism (Idle Air Control). These are going to be dealer fixes.

 

Thanks xviper

The car is fairly standard.

Drives normal and smooth, Vtec engages, Just like normal - when the car is WARMed up...

When cold - nothing obvious as far as I can see or hear...just the CEL is ON....

Idling is normal. Basically car drives normal.


I'll be dropping the car off to the dealer later this evening(under warranty).....but any other thoughts would be good.


When cold start - the CEL comes ON
Then I'll leave the car running until the 3rd temp bar comes on.
Then shut her down, restart her - CEL DOESNT come on.

 

Problem resolved....blown fuse in the AIr Pump Fuse box.....
