Default please help

ok i put my CAI on and my engine light is on i pulled out the back up fuse from the fuse box and it took it away for a couple of hours and i also disconnected the battery and when i got off work (8 hours later) its on again what else can i do to prevent the check engine light from coming on. it comes on from time to time.


should i jus leave it on until my car is used to the intake and it will come off?

what should i do?

Check to see if you routed your vacuum lines correctly.

look at the box on the brace in front of the engine, make sure that on the left side that hose is going to your intake, on the other side of the box the hose should be routing back towards the engine. Take pics if possible oh and make sure the vacuum sensor that is mounted on the intake dosent have any shreaded wires or is clamped
