Default Installed Halltech Trap

Engine light is now on. Is this normal until the computer adjusts or
is something wrong?

I see from your profile you have a Z06, this has been a problem with the Halltech Trap and Stinger... it's probably a lean code due to the fact that the Z06's don't have a screen in the MAF(mass air flow sensor) so there is too much air getting in and the computer cannot compensate to adjust.
A good number of Z06 folks have had this problem with the Halltech...I am not sure what the fix is,,maybe double check all your connections make sure nothing is loose,,other than that I guess only a tune would help fix the problem.

good luck

My understanding is that this isn't supposed to be a problem with the TRAP system. I'd go through all the connections again and see if the light goes away.... Good luck
