Check Engine Light????
Hello All,
Yesterday I went to my sisters house because my newphew was dying to take a ride in my (new to me) 2000 Coupe MN6. Of course I wanted to show him a good time so I drove the car pretty hard, when I dropped him off the car was doing fine, so I turned it off to let it cool down, went inside for about 20 minutes, and when I got back in it to go home the "Check Engine" light Came on, and Stayed on!!! The car was still running like a top, so previous experience with these lights told me to go home and disconnect the battery for a few minutes and it should go off. Well I left it off for about 15 minutes and plugged it back up and the light is still on!!!
What do ya'll think this could be? Also the DIC displayed while driving "Active Handling Warming Up" what does that one mean as well?
Thanks Guys! I hope ya'll can help a noobie out in distress!!!
Sean
PS. I don't usually drive my car that hard, I was just trying to be "The Cool Uncle"

Read the instruction on how to pull the code from your DIC. Then go to the link and figure out what it means. The Active Handling warming up is normal. It has something to do with making turns in the car shortly after start up.

Finally had the time to take it in to the mechanic, Very simple problem, the wires going to the pigtail connection on the IAT sensor had come loose, it was reading -38 degree's so that also was making my Active handling warm up. All is well.
Thanks guys!
