Has anyone had a service engine light after a radio swap? I got a bose 6 disk in my single cd max. Well for a little bit anyway, it was defective. I noticed after I pulled it my engine light came on. Any link up between the radio and the service engine light. Or maybe the modules in the radio stack?

 

AFter I got my Tv, info screen placed, the CEL turned on for a few days. Then it went away. If you goto Autozone, they'll scan it for free.

 

I'll check into it. Thanks. It just bugs me

 

I took it to autozone and the code was for a fuel temp sensor that was reading to low. I don't know exactly what the modules in the radio stack control. I have the exact code on paper in the car. I will take it to the dealer soon. it doesnt affect the car so I will take it after my fender and bumper are repaired.

 

I don't think it due to the radio.Samething happened to me and I only had like 700 miles on the odometer at the time. So, naturely I flipped out. I found out sometimes if too much air gets into the gas tank or the cap is loose service light will come on. Just fill up and drive home/around and it should go off soon. Try this for a cheap fix. Fuel temp low? Somehow this dosen't sound right. Fuel temp-fuel tank maybe there's a connection there.

 

hmmm,smoke maxima. Maybe that's the connection. no I'm just kidding.

 

CEL came on when I was messing with my radio. If I remember correctly it takes 17 cycles before the light will re-set itself.

 

click ur gas cap a few times... 9 times out of 10, thats the reason why

 

I did and filled up again today. lights still on. Doesnt it reset when you get the code read? I'll be taking it to the dealer soon anyway.

 

sometimes certain mods will trigger this light...disconnect negative terminal on battery for a little while...usually when you reconnect and turn the car on the computer relearns to the new settings.
