more check engine lights

i got a 96 gxe last week and it has had alot of problems. i just had my o2 sensor and o2 knock sensor changed yesterday and they deleted the codes. i was on the highway last night, middle of the night, with no one on the road. i see what the car can do (96 max gxe 5sp). i hit around 118-120, and the revs dumped down to 700 and i thought the car shut off. i restarted,(doin about 100 at about this time). the car was fine until i pulled onto my street bout 15 min later. the check engine light came on. y? does the maxima have a regulator at 120mph? if so, would it cause the check engine light to come on? the car felt like it stalled. i have no clue wtf is goin on. im gonna take it in today and see what that code is about. any ideas? the car drives fine now. wat could cause the light to come on? im gonna go get it checked out after work, but wat do u guys think it is?

any max that isn't an SE has a speed limiter, not sure what the cut off is though. Can't you check the codes from the screw on the ecu?

No, that is wrong.


Only GXE w/o Comfort and Convience Package have limiters.
