Engine Light
Hey everybody,
Just had my first glitch happen. My check engine light came on. I killed the engine and restarted it,... still on. The car has 3,765 miles on it, and as far as I can tell, it runs perfectly, no problems whatsoever... but the light is still on.
I do have Corsa Tours and a Vortex ram induction intake system installed. They were both installed about a month ago...
Has anyone had this happen, and if so what did you do about it?
The very idea of taking my baby into Chevrolet service sends cold chills up my back...
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated...

I have heard tale of the Vortex Ram triggering the sensor in the air induction system . This could trigger the engine light which reflects a problem with the clean air systems usually .

Yes, had the same problem pretty recently. Try playing around with the gas cap. It disappeared for me after a while (couple of engine starts). It's disconcerting that I don't really know why. The check engine light sometimes follows a "Check Fuel System" warning message.
