CEL (3 months after CAI install?)

[CELICA414]

alright i know this has been discussed many times before but i can't seem to find anything in my search. but, like i said my CEL came on today for the first time but it's been 3 monthes since i installed my CAI. what do i do. i don't wanna go to the dealer cause i voided my warranty with the exhaust and intake (i think)

Just reset the ECU, and give it some time. If it still comes on then you have a problem, but it probably won't.

just put the stock intake and exhaust back on them go to the dealer (if u still have them)<IMG SRC="http://www.newcelica.org/ubb/smilies/cwm12.gif" border=0>

is there a way for me to reset the ECU myself?

yeah take the negative pole off the battery for a few secs. then screw it back it.

i thought you had to disconnect the positive for 10 seconds

Hmmm...if you don't see anything wrong with the CAI, and it did come on after 3 months, and it won't go away. Maybe you should put back your stock air box to make sure it's not something else that's causing the CEL.

if u have a Injen CAI.....check the pipe that runz from the fan to the computer wall.....cuz most of the time that gets loose cuz it's right next to the intake pipe and it gets loose cuz of the vibrationz

[CELICA414]

well, i brought my car to an auto reair shop so they could hook it up to a computer, for some reason my sensors picked up that all four cylinders misfired!!! this definately did not happen so i'm not sure why it's reading this. anyway,he reset the ecu and hopefully the light won't come back on.

if you wanted to reset it yourself open up the fuseblock in the engine bay and pull out the fuses numbered 19,20,24 and hold them out for a minute or 2 until the ECU flashrom dumps.. thats all.
