Hondata 06 SI Help please!

4_Door_SI · 04-28-2006, 07:38 PM

I installed the Hondata Intake gasket today. It took about 4 hours and 3 tripes to Auto Zone.

We got everything connected and started up the car and got a CEL. Double checked my work and seen i didnt plug in a sensor that goes to the throttle body.

I turn the car back on and the CEL is still there. I go back to autozone ( getting frequent flier miles from them now) and there computer cant read the CEL.

So I am going to try to reset my computer. Is it best just to unplug the negative on the battery or is there a better way.

BTW the car runs fine with the CEL and VTEC still hits. It doesnt seem to be effecting the way it drives just annoying. Any help would be much appreciated.

I would buy one of those cheap OBD II scanners from Autozone. This will tell you or give you a hint to what is wrong. I hope something you installed didn't void the factory warranty. I would double check all your connections and go back to Autozone and have then read the code again. Post the code up on the forum here. Code will start with P0---.
