Yellow engine light after NM Charge pipe?!

OK guys,

Installed the nm charge pipe(cold side to throttle)

No boost leaks as im getting 15 almost 16 lbs...

Yellow light did not come on when i first drove it off, turned it off then on after sitting arounf with some friends. Then it came on. Resetting the light as we speak. Any one else have an issue with a charge pipe? I havent had good luck on anyone chiming in on issues so if u have any ideas please chime in!

You need to read the code. Otherwise you have no idea what the computer thinks is out of range.

Try looking for leaks again and give everything a second tightening. Look around for anything else that may have come loose during your install.

Trouble shot this morning before i headed in to work, found the issue. So i went back and checked all harnesses since it was a circuit fail. This means during initial startup circuit is passed through all sensors to determine initial status (unplugged harness). Went back and all harnesses were plugged in, as im giving a little tug to the harnesses the camshaft position actuator leads came STRAIGHT out. when i get home i will have to pull the harness and re insert the leads and the problem should be solved.



LOVE trouble shooting

HATE harnesses

fixed issue during a cig break... reinserted the harness and walla the light stayed on. Cleared the code and it never returned. It was a circuit fault so it would throw the code before start up on system check.
