Read the code. Report back. That is all.

There could be 150 different reasons/codes. Whenever the CEL is triggered it disables the cruise control and the VDC for safety and so that you will see 3 lights on and not ignore them.

pulled codes with friends AP said i had 2 cylinder misfires. i didnt clear them. i drove home played with the spark plug wires and then drove about 100 miles on NYE. When i went to leave the city after the new year, the CEL was gone. im guessing it corrected itself or the wires were loose??? should i cancel my appt with the dealer???

i drove allday today in snow and no codes were thrown. i am running re92s due to awaiting arrival on general atlimax artics from tire rack so i may be sliding around till i get them.

Did you get the ecu/harness from the donor car? If not, what year/type engine and what year ecu?
