CEL Error code list

Does anyone have it for the gen 3? I'm trying to find a list but I can only find the gen 2 list. I messed with my intake and bms stage 1 and now I have 3 error codes:

P0100
P112F
P12A4

Any help is appreciated

Could this be the culprit? The top is the MAF sensor electrical connector from my car and the bottom is from the stage 1 bms piggy back. I think the top one is missing one of the peg clips? Not sure though.

i didn't think the BMS had a MAF plug. thought it was only MAP and T-MAP for Stage1, and fuelrail added on for JB4.

back on topic, are you on the latest code for the Stage1. i remember awhile back P12A5 popping up and a firmware upgrade resolved it. i know P12A5 isn't on your list, but wanted to mention it at least.

Does it not plug into the MAF? I thought it did... I'll double check. I'm on the original firmware and never updated it and never got and CELs before. I took it off for some dealer work and put it back on and I think I messed something up.

nah. the MAF plugs into the intake. The stage1 plugs into the MAP and T-MAP Sensors. both are in front of the car on passenger and driver side.

HAHAHAHAHAH just read the instructions! I'm so dumb. I can't believe I did that. Thanks for pointing that out.... Anyways I still got the CEL codes after removing the stage 1 which is a problem I'm still trying to diagnose. Thanks Marco!

if you didn't wait long enough for the DME to clear power, then you could have simply triggered it by removing it...if the CEL exists, it'll come back. so clear it and see what it does after a 25-mile drive cycle.

Ok I'll try that. What does it mean "until DME clears the power"?

they say that when you turn off the car, leave it off for 5-10 minutes before you start unplugging stuff because the DME is still active and will monitor anything done (trigger a CEL). the 5-10 minute time frame is where the DME's power is drained to the point of it not seeing what you're doing.

opening and closing the door wakes the DME up again.

Ok cool, was not aware of that! If I uninstall and clear the codes and there is still an issue then the CEL should arise again, correct? I may just do that with and without the BMS installed (correctly this time) to see if I can make them go away. I'd be afraid of clearing the codes and the problem persisting and no CEL to alert that (that is not how it works, correct?). Thanks for putting up with my chronic ignorance.

correct...a CEL will always show up again if it is still there. it may take 25-50 miles but will show up. it will never just behaving like "oh the owner cleared me so i'm not gonna show up"...it will ALWAYS show up if it's still there.
