CHECK ENGINE

AussieTemplar's Photo AussieTemplar 30 Mar 2011

Gents,

Trying to fix my immobiliser, I looked under my steering wheel where that massive loom of wires with and noticed that this green plug was unplugged. Plugged it back in hoping it'd fix my immobiliser.. no luck. Went to drive the car this morning.. CHECK ENGINE light was on. Unplugged the green plug that I plugged in previously and it went away.. Previous owner done a dodgy? Maybe a sensor somewhere?

Cheers.

green plugs are test connectors, so the check engine will come on with them connected :)
