Stored codes need reading - it could be 1, or more, of many things.

Mine did that when I got it, go for too much power and the light came on, turn it off to reset. Turned out to be a wire for the mass air flow sensor that had rubbed through inside the trunking and become intermittent, throwing up a MAF out of range error.

Or it could be a sticky EGR valve, or a boost leak, or the throttle pedal, or the MAP, or the vane ring sticking, etc, etc.

Much easier to plug it in and ask it what is wrong, saves a lot guessing, which saves time and money.

Well that clears everything up now doesn’t it!! :roll:

In that case it will definitely be the pipe thats at fault, or the wire the goes from the engine to other bit :wink:

But that’s only if it’s a blue one.

White ones Will have a faulty engine sensor.
